Not a big deal, but...sheesh. It's not like it was a troll comment; just a relatively lighthearted poke.
Whats the issue?
On another note - the third link captures the back button and doesn’t let you get back to hacker news (at least on mobile). What a shitty site.
long click the back button, a popup will show your navigation history and you can click the last link before entering the broken site.
That said, the behavior is absolutely unacceptable.
[1]: And in Firefox desktop you can also do this but I can't remember if it is long-click or right click.
How the great have fallen...
