There’s every possibility that IronFox’s hardening is to blame for this, but that fact that the site doesn’t work at all is disgraceful.
In case you’re wondering, no I don’t use MSN. I was linked to that page from a Lemmy post.

Level that place.
I get a white page and a bunch of CORS errors scrolling down in what is basically ironfox but manually done over the years.
Whatever, no loss.
MSN is kind of a joke
Good. MSN can disappear.
Whenever I click an MSN link it takes me to the home page list of recent articles or whatever. Doesn’t bring up the article at all.
Different browser but all the same. Fuck msn.
msn loaded like 3 desperate pages overlapping all at the same time on (unhardened) Firefox desktop the other week, I think they just don’t care about Firefox in general
Do you use any extension for disabling referrers? This may also be disabled by default in IronFox, but this is just guessing. I haven’t tried IronFox. It would make sense though. I do it on lots of webpages.
This is the console output I got trying to load MSN in IronFox. Maybe someone else can decipher what is actually causing it.

Oh no, anyway have you seen ducksuckgo?
