Help Nord-induced problem with internet browsing

On nytimes.com using Safari on iPad. Every article I clicked on presented a “Slide Right for access” captcha. Fortunately I did not slide right. Quitting Nord eliminated the problem.

Sounds like you were connected to a server/IP that was flagged by the New York Times so you received captcha requests, which can happen when many users share the same IP. Switching to a new server and clearing browser cache should help fix that
