Relaunch wsws

Mark the date: 2 October 2020. North announces " industry-leading technology" an multiple articles per day. If they going to place more sophisticated ads or cookies, then thats the end of it for me. There is no reason to abandon the current format. 

I guess we can expect a reaction on the transition from the oldskool northites http://forum.permanent-revolution.org/ . There where some interesting polemics on it a while a go, but haven't read it in ages.

The article says:
Responding to the fact that more than half the WSWS readership accesses the site with either a mobile phone or tablet, the redesigned site will provide excellent usability on all viewing platforms. Readers entering the site via a cell phone or tablet will have access to the full scope of the WSWS’s content in the appropriate viewing format.
 
It sounds like ads and cookies are not the main focus, although that will probably (necessarily) occur. Does this site have ads? I use an ad blocker, so I don't know.

Hopefully, they will include video, and maybe even a way of uploading videos to the site.
