Aliexpress listings can have multiple different items, and the price displayed in the search results will be that of the first of those (in your case, probably just an antenna) rather than the actual item you searched for or even the item i

One thing... Mobile Safari didn't use to cache anything over 15KB uncompressed. http://www.phpied.com/iphone-caching/ (No idea about more current versions of iOS or browser-caching on other mobiles OSs.)

Maybe it was just quicker/cheaper for Yahoo! to buy Summly and their license than to negotiate their own license off SRI?

This tax works because it was a surprise. What do you think would have happened if, say, they gave 48 hours notice?
