I opened the page with my VPN active and inactive. Works both ways for me.
It may be your provider that's the issue.
Edit ... it also could be your browser. I used two different ones.

Thank you, Changed browser from firefox to chrome, same issue, however my cellphone provider works just fine. I'm probably being too suspicious.
I use 7 different browsers so I can usually get one of them to work -- or hide me better -- depending on what I'm researching. ;)
Who is your non cell internet provider?
videotron
Videotron's DNS service is complete and utter ass, set your DNS to CIRA CanadianShield.
FWIW, I disabled Wi-Fi on my Hélix router and fronted it with a nice ASUS router, this lets me set the DNS for my entire home network to CIRA.
Je n'ai pas Hélix, je ne me souviens pas des détails mais il y avait plusieurs truc du service dont je ne voulais absolument pas quand c'Est sortis. J'utilise DD-WRT dans mon routeur. as-tu des références que je peux consulter au sujet de CIRA et comment l'utiliser?
Ouin ma compréhension est qu'on a pas le choix asteur d'utiliser le Hélix, il a fallu que j'en achète un de Vidéotron et j'ai pas le choix d'un autre fournisseur ici >:(
https://www.cira.ca/en/canadian-shield/configure/
Voilà! Oublie pas d'activer ton DNS over HTTPS pour avoir le maximum de vie privée, hésite pas si t'as des questions!
Merci, suite à tes recommendation je suis tombé sans un trou de lapin. Mon modem n'a pas de configuration que je peux modifier moi même. Deuxième chose, Videotron intercepte mes requêtes DNS et les traites sur ses propres serveurs, malgré que j'ai configuré CIRA dans mon router, et dans mes setting sur ma connection PC. Le support n'a pas l'air d'avoir de moyen pour changer ça. Finalement, j'ai mon forfait depuis très longtemps et je paye beaucoup trop chers. J'ai eu le temps de m'en apercevoir parce que le chat du service est devenu très lents, 5 à 15 minutes entres les réponses. Je vais possiblement changer de fournisseur avant longtemps.
Both firefox and chrome. It's fine when in thether to my phone with different provider.
Works for me.
The page is reachable for me in a Javascriptless desktop browser window and does not throw the error you described, so it's probably a broken script or embed. Or at least I hope it's just broken and not malicious.
(What's additionally weird is that 413 is an error you would normally see when uploading a file too large for the server . . .)
I can open both, though your second link leads to a 404, I had to open it via the Telesur homepage.
Thank you.
No, Canada is not being blocked from Venezuelans news.
Yeah I figured that out, thanks. I guess i was under the shock and found this technical very unusual.
