  Not really changing my opinion that they're just being childish, to be honest. The ddos argument doesn't hold any water either because they don't actually refuse connections with a referrer from the offensive sites - I guess because that would prevent showing a little JavaScript alert box to make the full weight of petulance known. This person could have just ignored that any of the offending platforms exist, and optionally blocked their referred users from making connections at all if so desired. The best part is that they complain we aren't discussing the original article's content... you know, the article we can't read without jumping through a hoop.
