Anyone else get constant ERR_BLOCKED_BY_XSS_AUDITOR when trying to post stories to Rantburg?
I can't post any more unless I pull out my Internet Explorer browser. It has to do with Chrome-based browsers refusing to accept POST requests for security reasons. Is Rantburg going to upgrade to fix the problem? Details at the link.Comment 6 by dc3de...@gmail.com, Aug 10 This happens when you post to a forum system (e.g., vBulletin) and within your post, you refer to another post. This common practice has been made super-cumbersome. For example, ..." yes we were discussion this very thing last month in {hyperlink and title of another forum post} ..." This needs to be dialed back. It obviously didn't get subjected to enough field testing ha ha. Trying to duplicate this now... Hasn't worked so far... I haven't been able to duplicate it. The explanation I've seen on a Google forum doesn't make my Chrome barf, maybe because I use Linux. I've never gotten that error in thousands of posts. The "workaround" fix involves leaving the Burg vulnerable to cross-server pollination (XSS), which I don't want to do. Until recently, Chrome was my browser of choice. I've switched to Opera lately and I like it. We had parted ways ten years or so ago when a new release broke existing Rantburg code. It's been very well-behaved for me this time. I started ditching Google when they fired that tech for being politically incorrect. Opera's good, and I've used Brave as well. I use Duck Duck Go in place of Google search. I'm not sure what I'm going to do about mail. Maintaining a mail server's always been a pain in the underwear for me, so I've been relying on Gmail. I don't know what the alternatives' politix are. I don't want to know. If I've got to recognize seventy two genders and vote Democrat before I'm dead and feel guilty about being a white person I'll switch to something else.
