there's something seriously wrong with this archived link. It's not staying still for one moment. It's constantly twitching and the text scrolls to weird positions. It's unreadable because of this.

Is it the archive at fault or is the original webpage this way?

It constantly reloads for me (Firefox.) Just hit X which replaces the reload button while the page is loading and it will stop.

Disable JavaScript, reason #99e99.

Works for me here, and in 90% of the cases where someone complains of annoying page behaviour (cookie banners, revenue optimizations, subscription solicitations, "click here to ...", paywalls, ads, et alii ad nauseam).

Seriously, just disable JavaScript on unknown/untrusted/undeserving sites. It makes the web tolerable.

Was the VPT site not working for you, so you had to resort to archive.org? Original link https://vptdigital.com/blog/honey-detecting-testers/ . Anyone having trouble -- contact Ben Edelman (easily found by web search) and I will genuinely value the opportunity to get to the bottom of what is wrong.

Yup, was just dead for me and stayed dead, so I went and grabbed an archived link.

Don’t recall precisely how it was dead, but I assumed via traffic.

I think I saw a 5xx error when I tried to see the original link. I assumed it might have been due to a hug of death.

It seems to be loading fine now.
