Unrelated to the content, anyone else having trouble reading this article?
After three reloads from what seems to be way too many interactive ads, the page crashed entirely. I got about one paragraph in before this:

- SketchySeaBeast 5y agoI don't, but I don't have any ad-blocking outside of what Firefox supplies by default, and I'm sure that's the difference.
- brrrrrm 5y agoYou’re probably right, I’m browsing with iOS safari and no ad-block
- SketchySeaBeast 5y agoNo ad-block? Well that's surprising.
- intrasight 5y agoThank you for encouraging me to install an ad blocker for iOS. Now I can read that article ;)
- ruuda 5y agoWorks fine with javascript disabled. The images don't load, but on Vice they usually add nothing to the story anyway.
- reilly3000 5y agoYes it was pretty brutal, they have all manner of interstitials, exit-pops, app ads, video ads, and more. Publishers thing they have to do this crap to survive, but they are actually ensuring their demise. I had to try three times to get through the article as my UX was totally disrupted when I scrolled up. Two modals stacked atop each other, hoping to catch me before I left. Yuck.
