Cool magazine that I used to be a huge fan of. The thing to notice, I was. I mean the quality of articles on a high level, no questions to the credibility and fact-checking, still they have something to surprise me with creative and actual content. But, the time and the way they get it done, appears to be not suitable for modern reality. Current times require fast information, so is what it is…

I love this website, like reading different articles and so here.. but the main reason why I started reading them is yt videos about wired autocomplete interview! They have got the best celebrities to participate and the one with Samuel L Jackson was just amazing! I didn't know he was into Anime! And I like that they don't go too overboard with politics, they just don't make it super negative.

Just as I thought when I entered best gifts article, it was only advertisement with amazon deals

offers insightful articles on tech and culture. It’s a great resource, though sometimes the content feels a bit too niche. Overall, a solid site for staying updated.

quite a fascinating and secure website. i like that they don't just publish news but also sell their merch and there is a section with big stories, interesting longreads. as for merch then you can buy apparel, accessories, gifts and everything else. Wired is a pretty much respected medium, i read some articles they publish but i cant' say that i am a regular user of this website. still, it's a proven place if you jsut want to keep yourself in the loop of current state of affairs in various spheres.

I would give them 10/10 for content. I appreciate how they always come up with interesting and exciting articles. You can’t find anything similar out there. However, its website is packed with trackers. I understand that very few people even pay attention to this, but I want to share my disappointment. At this moment, there are 18 trackers on one of their pages, and 10 of them are just for ads. Never seen enough similar to these numbers. I can only imagine where my mail will go if I subscribe to them

Extremists and transphobic people work here. Stay away.

Does not appear to report stories impartially, adding writer-induced biases into the title and/or content of articles. Would not recommend as an impartial and unbiased source of news, as all news sites should be.

Безопасен для посещения в данный момент. Для знающих английский язык можно найти интересный материал, хотя большая част информации носит рекламный характер.

I just started reading the article "How Four Brothers Allegedly Fleeced $19 Million From Amazon." I stopped after they quoted one of the brothers where he was using extremely foul language. It should have been blanked out, we would have still gotten the thought.

This site is safe. Lots of trackers and ads though.
Helpful
Site that tracks so much, wants to be added to whitelist, and so on, hard to be trusted. And not to mention their bias in their political articles... Pro-western, supports the trend to be "against Iran and Syria", the last countries that resist Israel...
Helpful
Now they want you to pay a dollar a month or turn off your adblocker. I'm done with them.

I bin using this site for some time now so far this site is trustworthy site recommend it safe 150% I would recommend this site to any one.

This site now blocks viewers that use ad-blocking extensions to browser – just like forbes.com. They are now in the habit of running full page editorial political endorsements (Clinton) instead of technology content. This is not good.
Helpful
Any site like this that demands that you add their site to your ad-block white-list and has ads that track you is very suspicious. There were 18 trackers detected on one of their pages, 10 of them being advertising trackers. Then, they also want you to register, using your email. It's obvious that they have no regard for your privacy, so you can imagine what you could expect them to do with your email address. If you do choose to register with an email account, I would suggest using a service like 10 Minute Mail.
