This link shows a blank page with red text “Sorry, you need to enable JavaScript to visit this website.” But when I scroll on mobile, a little extra space appears due to the url bar scrolling out of view, and in that space, I can see a glimpse of the full article itself rendering just fine, only it's unusable because of this anti-disable-Javascript overlay blocking the view :(

Looks fine in a text-only browser.

For folks who prefer reading text using large, complex, graphical browsers released by organisations that seek to profit directly or indirectly from the proliferation of online advertising^1

From https://www.economist.com/business/2022/09/18/the-300bn-goog... (currently on HN front page)

"The most surprising new adman is Apple. The iPhone-maker used to rail against intrusive digital advertising. Now it sells many ads of its own. As sales of smartphones plateau, the company is looking for new ways to monetise the 1.8bn devices, from smartphones to smart earphones, it already has in circulation. So far it is only dabbling in ads and does not report sales figures. But Bloomberg reported recently that Apple's ad business was already generating sales of $4bn a year, making it about as big an ad platform as Twitter. Apple executives believe there is much more to be had."

Even with javascript enabled it looks awful on mobile.
