Link redacted as being onerous in that it requires readers to allow Ads.

EDIT:  A reader reports that when he goes to the link above his browser sais he  "had to deactivate (his) Ad Blocker to view.  I do not receive such a warning, but be aware.

Well I tried to go there. It told me I had to deactivate my Ad Blocker to view. I went to do that and my firewall immediately warns me it had already detected four tracker programs. So I will pass on this site. 
Walt,
Had I done everything right throughout my life, the World wouldn't have noticed.

OK, that site is The Washington Post. I certainly would not visit a site I felt uncomfortable with.  My Browser, FireFox,  has Ad Blocker enabled and it saw no problem with the site.
EDIT: I used my phone to view the link by coming to rontini's and clicking.  No Ad Blocker admonition.

I'll edit my original to include your concern.
