But what about mobile devices that have no visible scroll bars?
OSX by default doesn't have scrollbars either.

I had changed the setting though, so it was obvious to me that there is more content. But I can easily imagine people not scrolling down and assuming there is no content.

I think “frustrated scroll” might be a pretty common move when presented with what looks like a broken page.
What's the point of injecting all these scripts for such a simple website?
Betteridge's law, despite the cute little thing at the bottom.

I actually closed the window the first time, because it looked like the site had just failed. Then I suspected a self-referential joke and there it was. So a funny once, otherwise no.

They don't when the page wants to load 8 different external scripts, 5 different tracking beacons, 13 things automatically blocked by uBlock Origin, and then even when you enable all scripts it still just says "Yes they do."
I didn't realize that the page actually did anything at all for just this reason. Thanks for taking one for the team...also why was this in a script in the first place? Shouldn't it just be text?
It's pretty easy to miss the joke when on a portrait monitor...
there's no need to scroll, all the noscript errors fit on one page.
People love to scroll. Don't annoy them by using fixed headers: http://zichy.de/public/siufh.html.
Well this was confusing. I wouldn't consider my monitor to be particularly large or high res (Apple 27, 2560 x 1440) and I didn't have to scroll to see the 'Yes they do' message
Charlie don't scroll!
I'm going to give you an up-vote purely for the bastardised film ref. :D

(Now watch us both get voted down to invisibility!)
