Sorry, I have to first ask: for a sub that covers topics including privacy, are you sure you want to call Google servers on every page view?
Anyway, the problem is a “mixed content” error: the Voat page you are on uses the secure HTTPS protocol, but the URL you are trying to import is HTTP. Some/most browsers will block this for security reasons as you don’t want insecure content injected in the middle of a secure page.
The solution is to drop the protocol scheme entirely, like this:
(Wow, the @ sign is really fucky with the Markdown processor. You know what it’s supposed to look like.)
The // is a relative path, meaning “use the same protocol as the origin”, so if you are on a https:// url, it will use https://, and if you are on a http:// page, it will use http://.
Thanks for your answer! I honestly haven't even thought of the implications of that piece of CSS, and now that you mention it I gladly give up on the idea. Thanks for clarifying though!
