Google doesn't know what to do with the document as downloaded, so it's attempting to open Google Play to find an app for it. Since I'm not logged into Google, the Play Store app jumps straight to the Google Login page on my device. Trying to jump directly to the page in Fennec gives me the Invalid Format error. Recognizing the file extension of the downloaded script should be HTML rather than PDF, I renamed it as such and loaded it locally in Fennec, where indeed it asked if I'm over 18, but since the page was loaded locally, the Yes/No buttons don't even work as they're sending the button response to localhost 127.0.0.1 instead of their website. Anyways, thanks for all the help, you've been none. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 1 point 9 months ago (3 children) I've been a web developer for decades. What you are describing matches nothing I've ever heard of on any browser or platform. This indeed was an html page that redirected to a pdf after clicking a link. Nothing about this should trip up any modern (or ancient) web browser. Absolute basic functionality. Why would I be lying about this? You tell me why you keep insisting a normal web page is like greek to your phone. Or why you were required to login to google services -- something neither the webpage does, nor any OS-oriented handling of any actually-unknown file type I have ever seen on android (ps HTML is not a bizarre unknown content type). What you described (in two distinctly different and random ways) sure isn't anything I'd ever be able to explain. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 3 child comments replies: [–] over_clox@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago (2 children) I finally figured it out, it's apparently a bug in the Jerboa for Lemmy app when I try tapping the link posted in Jerboa. Jerboa sees PDF, Jerboa blindly tries to open it as PDF. When I copy the link and paste it into Fennec directly, the link and age verification script works as expected. So the only thing I was doing 'wrong' was by tapping the link in Jerboa, like why would I expect the simple act of tapping a link is somehow messed up in Jerboa..? Anyways, thanks for all the 'help', accusing me of being a liar and all. I sure hope you and others accusing me of lying never get into tech support, nothing will ever get fixed or solved that way. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago (1 child) Yeah, I would never in a million years have guessed that and I could never be in customer service.

That's not a PDF document at all, that's an HTML document that's attempting to prompt me for my age. Get your links right homie, that's not a PDF at all. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 8 child comments replies: [–] can@sh.itjust.works 7 points 9 months ago* (6 children) But it's a very surface level prompt. Is it just me that has instinctively selected the "I'm over 18" button without thinking long before that was true? They don't ask verification as far as I know. It's the US gov so you're correct to be cautious. I didn't try in a "private" tab. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 6 child comments replies: [+] over_clox@lemmy.world -8 points 9 months ago (5 children) No no no, I had to open the downloaded 'PDF' to my device, then open it with a hex editor, to discover it was actually in HTML format, to request my age and ID first. The page never outright even loaded, I just discovered that because I know how to use a hex editor. The page never loaded properly in either format, neither PDF nor HTML. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 5 child comments replies: [–] can@sh.itjust.works 4 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) (4 children) What device, os, browser fennec, and addons? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] over_clox@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago (2 children) I figured it out, it's apparently a bug in the Jerboa for Lemmy app. Jerboa sees PDF and tries to open my default PDF viewer rather than my web browser Fennec. When I copy the link and paste it directly in Fennec, it works as expected, but when I tap the link in Jerboa, it's blindly trying to open it with a PDF app, which gives the Invalid Format error. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] can@sh.itjust.works 2 points 9 months ago* (1 child) Incredible.

No Chrome here, I used to use Firefox, until they started adopting AI tech, so now I use the more privacy focused fork, Fennec. permalink fedilink source parent [–] BCsven@lemmy.ca 5 points 9 months ago It is a pdf link but there is an intercept script that does the age verification. Once you have said yes once, the PDF links then just directly lead to the PDFs. But I don't understand why you are promted for Google sign in, I tried on Vanadium and Firefox and there was no google stuff. permalink fedilink source parent
