Sent a message to wired.com ... let's hope they fix it soon.
Ah thanks. Shwetank! :) <3
I'm not sure if this bug is relevant. Wired.com uses mobify.js to (attempt to) make a responsive site. Issues with Mobify and/or Firefox causes some problems that as of right now are not fully understood, I think - the best bug for following up that is bug 923360. As I no longer see signs of sniffing and different content sent to different devices, I'll close this as WFM - further work in the other bug..
