At first I thought this is an unusually short news article.

Looks like the reason is that it needs Googles amp code to function.
It's hillarious that Google gets away bloating the web with crap and selling us that as a way to make it more lightweight.
Flagging it for this reason. I think we should not support AMP here on HN.
- bonestamp2 8y agoTry the uMatrix browser plugin. No cross domain javascript is loaded by default, and it's super configurable. I was able to read this page, but the map and some other content was blocked.
- TekMol 8y agoI do use uMatrix and love it. If you were able to read it without js, the reason is probably that HN meanwhile changed the link to the non-amp version.
- bonestamp2 8y agoAh ok, cheers to another uMatrix user!
