LA Times is not available in Europe. Does anyone know a way of how to access the article?
edit:// Seems to be available in Google Cache at ( http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:6Zh46Sr5ZEQJ:www.latimes.com/business/autos/la-fi-hy-tesla-whistleblower-20180621-story.html+&cd=1&hl=de&ct=clnk&gl=de&client=firefox-b http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:6Zh46Sr... ).
As suspected, more of a press release than anything else. Just because the name "Tesla" is in it this gets upvoted?
edit2:// This is the original article which has much more detail and is overall better:

- erikb 8y agoJust in case non-European people wonder, here's what we get presented with instead of the article: > Unfortunately, our website is currently unavailable in most European countries. We are engaged on the issue and committed to looking at options that support our full range of digital offerings to the EU market. We continue to identify technical compliance solutions that will provide all readers with our award-winning journalism.
- tomp 8y agoWhat a shitshow. They could just disable cookies instead, or display text-only versions of the articles instead of this passive-agressive behaviour.
- whatyoucantsay 8y agoTheir behaviour is more defensive in nature, really.
- cjhopman 8y agoRight. I don't understand why they don't just disable all the ways that they make money and give their content to people in the EU for free.
- tomp 8y agoWell they'd earn the same as they're earning now :D
- Grangar 8y agoPrefix the URL with outline.com/ ;)
- whatyoucantsay 8y agoTalk to your representatives and let them know the pain the vague and overreaching GDPR causes you. Perhaps, in time, law makers will undo some of the harm they've caused. Until then, invest in a VPN that lets you appear to be from elsewhere.
- zzzeek 8y agoWhy not talk to the LA Times and encourage them to be GPDR compliant? For everyone, not just EU citizens.
- whatyoucantsay 8y agoBecause the GDPR requirements are vague, overreaching, at odds with best practise and not yet even implemented by the misguided legislature that wrote it.
