I’m in Germany: 451: Unavailable due to legal reasons

  Same in the UK. Thank you eurocrats.

    Hardly.

    certainly not, if media companies would just go back to publishing rather than selling ads and using dark patterns we'd be able to actually see their content.

      Which leaves them with selling subscriptions, so you still wouldn’t be able to read it.

        It's not ads that are the problem, but the associated spyware.

    It has nothing to do with eurocrats but with the anal probes media companies insist to give any visitor. And it’s a wrong usage of error 451 which will do harm to the concept of making censorship visible. Plus it does not even work consistently, I can read the article after reloading.

      So why did they do it in the first place? Regardless if they did it wrong they did it for a reason.

        They couldn't be assed to build a not morally compromised version of their page. Ads are still possible with GDPR if you forego invasive tracking or obtain explicit permission. Arguably ads with tracking is going an extra mile over just displaying some ads anyways.

        Invasive tracking is still possible. What those companies do not want is to invest big money into "advisors" that help them to be complient with GDPR. A law that was not even made by their own government. Complience not only means "get consent". There is a long list of things you have to do, regardless of who or what you are tracking. And then you still don't have certainty if you are all legal, because there are so many details that courts will have to interpret first. And then they may be interpreted differently in different EU countries (because we all have our own national version of GDPR!) So, in conclusion, study this: https://gdpr.eu/ https://gdpr.eu/ or simply block users you don't care about anyways.

  It basically says money is leaving China, and there are reasons to expect the movement to increase, so the government has put restrictions on money movement and is selling its international reserves. There is no further detail on the restrictions or the selling. The detail is all on the capital movement.
