Hi Al, big fan. I
Maybe I just don't have the broken Internets problem very often, or I
don't notice it. I can use important sites such as my email provider's
web interface (when I'm not near my regular email client) and my credit
union's mobile site without enabling scripts, so there really isn't much

Nope, I got that too. You can remove it with the developer
tools/firebug. A bit disappointing that they go all HEY
Which can be dismissed with a click normally...

On other sites, yes - that's what I'm used to.
But on this site I didn't see anything that even remotely resembles

concentrating on Ft. Meade's new-ish offensive push. But I'm not sure

Guys:
I know the registration wall can be a bit of a pain. Asa reader, I'm
not nuts about them, either. But these measures really are important
to FP's long-term financial health.
Anyway, in the future, let me see if I can get links I post to Libtech
white-listed, so you guys don't have to go

If you disable javascript for the site there is no overlay. If you
selectively block javascript from anything not fp.com, the overlay

I clicked, I got the article no problem,
I read the article and enjoyed it with the sick fascination we tend to read
these things. Odd to think of FP as sort of tabloid celebrity profile of

I'm kind of surprised FP's javascript is the main topic of discussion around
this article. Thank you FP and Shane Harris for this very informative article!
Second that. This is why we regularly tweet FP content because the FP

At Foreign Policy, we just published what I believe is the first major profile
