It is a sad state of affairs, IF IT IS THE CASE, because I expected more from the team that runs the place. Going to the trouble of blocking a popular publication is petty. Blocking it the-site-that-shall-not-be-named on here is petty too.

Thank you for the advice on how to use my phone. Now, if only I had someone to help me tie my shoes....

Actually blocking a website (if it is the case) is far different than a conspiracy theory about major social media platforms. But that aside, one is provided for entertainment and the other is provided as a service - I expect more from a service.

Confirmation bias is real; I can find any number of articles that say so.
