Although a lot of this thread has focused on the issues of UA spoofing,
if you're using NoScript, I'm inclined to believe that's the problem. I
I also make extensive use of NoScript, and in my default settings, I see
the same kind of blurring at The Globe. A check of NoScript shows that
when I arrive at the Globe's site, scripts presented by bostonglobe.com,
googletagmanager, chartbeat.com, blueconic.com, amazon-adsystem and 3
different hosts at cloudfront are all there.
With a little trial-and-error, I find that if I enable bostonglobe.com,
then the photos resolve correctly. If that scripting host is enabled,
then I see no problems with photos with the default UA, and no spoofing
is needed. However, the trade-off is that the scripting host that runs
The Globe's paywall, and it takes clicking only an article or two before
you get nagged for a subscriber login.
Confirmed as to javascript. I get blur no matter what I do until I
reenable js. As for subscriber logins, I routinely get these nags from a
variety of news sites, but clearing cookies resets their counters to
zero and lets you read a few more articles. But blocking cookies often
causes them to refuse to serve any content at all. You have to pretend
to cooperate.
