- Alifatisk 3y agoVisit mcdonalds.com?
- gruez 3y agoProbably not, given that the post's author was seemingly more concerned about making an outrage post than doing the most basic of investigation. From what I can tell one part of the script is trying to do `google.maps`, which errors out because `google` is undefined. The code in question seems to be initialization related, so it's unclear whether the page actually requires google maps api, or the site was poorly designed and tries to initialize google maps api on every page.
- zagrebian 3y agoOP here. I’m not outraged. I’m just sharing interesting observations.
- pvg 3y agoBut the observation is wrong or at a minimum, gussied up to make it look interesting. If you're calmly producing clickbait, it's still clickbait.
- zagrebian 3y agoThe headline that I wrote is a fact, pure and simple.
- pvg 3y agoWhether it's a fact is under some dispute but it doesn't matter if it's a fact, it's specifically selected to be bait.

- zagrebian 3y agoI have no idea what you’re talking about. I didn’t “select anything to be bait”. I found an interesting behavior on a website and wanted to share it. What exactly is your problem?
