- generalpass 7y ago> Mainly to prevent opening the context menu - probably to make copying images harder... I feel like Gary Larson is still new to the Internet. I mean, the prevalence of Twitter screenshots alone should demonstrate the futility of such efforts. Though it may be that he just doesn't want to tell with supporting the image link traffic. However, given that uMatrix reports blocking >5K, my suspicion is that he or whoever he has doing his site may not be all that clever. (I haven't any plans to dig into why uMatrix is reporting so much.)
- huebomont 7y agoThe idea that Gary Larson made any decision about context menus or tracking on this site is hilarious. He was definitely not involved in that way.
- dgenzale 7y agoOf course, it's just genius that they would go to this level of detail for something almost nobody will ever see.
