> A HTTPS mirror:
Why?
- ignoramous 8y agoOne of several reasons: ISPs meddle with content. https://www.infoworld.com/article/2925839/code-injection-new-low-isps.html https://www.infoworld.com/article/2925839/code-injection-new...
- bradleyjg 8y agoKind of ironic that an article complaining about ISP practices served me an uncloseable scam ad. Mote, beam and all that.
- greglindahl 8y agoI have adblock and I don't see an ad. Most people commenting at HN use adblock. It's a pretty good illustration of why you might want to prevent 3rd parties from fucking with the content you view without your permission, while also using adblock to fuck with the content you view with your permission.
