I click on this link, but because I'm not logged in through one of the proxies, it takes me to a locked journal page with an abstract 5/pic.twitter.com/s98uM3f5Cl
This is annoying. However, I persevere. I log into Google scholar through several tedious proxy screens which gives me this lovely page 6/pic.twitter.com/yIDiGAXmNA
Then I click on that lovely Uni of Sydney link to the right and...nothing. A blank white page 7/pic.twitter.com/gUQu3jdexL
