Meltdown & Spectre Information and Discussion

[Searchernow]

Hi all,

thanks for your responses. I use FF (more strict blocking of tracking content etc.) and that's where I interact with this forum; and for others, e.g. non-https sites where I will not be logging in, I use Chromium (less strict blocking, though still blocks javascript by default).

I re-opened this page on Chromium, it said javascript was blocked, so I un-blocked for this page, but still no image. I allowed protected content, still no image.

All I can suggest is:
a) I have more secure browser environments which see reasons to block the content
or
b) I am missing something in the way I have things set up. Though I do normally use FF to read e.g. The Guardian and I'm used to blank spaces/content or ads blocked. That's the way I like it.

Another factor may be my use of plug-ins Privacy Badger, HTTPS Everywhere, and Disconnect.

Anyway, I am assuming Jerry's posted image is not vital for me, I can live without it. I'm curious of course!
