Secret Briefing Zeroes in on Suspected Russian Spy Station in New York
- andrewfromx 4y agointeresting, original url was: https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/secret-briefing-zeroes-in-on-suspected-russian-spy-station-in-new-york/ar-AA100JKe https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/secret-briefing-zeroes-in-... does HN auto convert that to thedailybeast.com somehow?
- krapp 4y agoIf there's a canonical url in the metadata HN will automatically use it. It does seem to be a Daily Beast article so I assume it's in there somewhere. Better UX would be to have an interstitial page giving the submitter the option to use it or not, because canonical urls, like all metadata, are often abused for SEO.
