GDPR i sidadressen är ju en ledtråd.
Tronc är tydligen moderbolaget som äger tidningen, och samma resultat får man om man går in på några av de andra tidningarna de äger.

En av tidningarna har dock en bättre förklaring än "frågan" -

451: Unavailable due to legal reasons
We recognize you are attempting to access this website from a country belonging to the European Economic Area (EEA) including the EU which enforces the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and therefore access cannot be granted at this time. For any issues, contact imcustomerservice@pilotonline.com or call 757-446-9000.
Och förklaringen är helt enkelt GDPR -

(Vilket ju Enoch.Thulin redan berättat.)
Varför påverkar då detta amerikanska tidningar? Tja, de tar det osäkra för det säkra och vill ogärna riskera massiva böter.

Citat:
The European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation will take effect next week, on May 25, 2018. The GDPR’s impact extends far beyond existing data protection measures and affects business of all sizes — from solopreneurs to the largest corporations.
"From May 25 on, the EU will effectively require all businesses to be compliant if they wish to operate in EU member states and serve individuals in the EU — either directly or as a third party (read: at all)."
...
Does the GDPR apply to every business with EU ties?
It depends. The GDPR will affect all companies, individuals, corporations, public authorities or other entities that offer goods or services to individuals in the EU or that monitor their behavior there. For example, the GDPR applies to an American company whose website is made available to people in the EU, or a Boston-based HR manager in an international organization that collects data centrally from EU-based applicants and employees. The GDPR even applies to charities and nonprofit organizations that collect information from individuals in the EU.
Will compliance to the GDPR be closely monitored?
Yes. Noncompliance can result in massive fines. In fact, if a company is not compliant with the GDPR by the May 25 deadline, it could face penalties as big as 20 million euros (around $24 million), or 4 percent of annual global turnover — whichever is a higher amount of money. Supervisory authorities within the EU have “investigative and corrective powers” to monitor and impose these administrative fines. The supervisory authorities’ job is to closely observe corporate data practices and strictly enforce punishment if GDPR requirements are not met on May 25 — or any day thereafter.
Och i stället för att tillsätta ansvariga för data osv, så blockar de helt enkelt sidorna för EU-medborgare, dels blir det billigare, dels är vi ju inte deras målgrupp ändå.
