Seems like The New York Times has invented a new annoying method of mouse hijacking. When click selecting the text while reading I am `swiping` to the next article on desktop. And double click increases font size?

I'd never encountered this before, but it looks like it's been around for a while: https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=554644 .
From that page:

This is a site "feature": the page cycles through font-sizes 17px->20px->26px on each double-click or tap.
