I don’t see it on any other website but here - via Safari. Is this scroll tracking what one reads here? Wouldn’t be surprised in the least if so, and don’t really care. Just curious.

Showed up on my screen just minutes ago, but interestingly just after posting this question, it has disappeared from mine.

Hmmmm.

Yep.

I see it frequently.

It’s nearly invisible, but it’s there.

Not always. It’s off and on. I assume it’s a tracking tool to determine exactly what lines you’re reading on the site, exactly what line you’re on, how long you’re on that page, etc.

Perhaps it’s more than just a white line. Perhaps there is micro print embedded and it’s a static line to keep the microprint directly in front of your eyes, regardless of what you’re reading or looking at.

But it is absolutely ONLY on GLP that I see it.

“Mental slavery is the worst form of slavery.
It gives you the illusion of freedom,
makes you trust, love, and defend your oppressor,
while making an enemy of those
who are trying to free you or open your eyes.”
-Fiyah

“None are more hopelessly enslaved than those who falsely believe they are free.”
-Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

“You have been programmed to resist the very person that is here to set you free, from the prison of your Mind... You are not free... everything you are has been manufactured by Minds that have not your best interest. You are imprisoned by beliefs and not reality. Religions are mental programs to imprison your Mind.”

It's a specific CSS styling for smooth scrolling or not. Just incredibly basic web design.

To break the Mind control, we should start cycling through various browsers and wearing dark-tinted welding goggles when visiting the site!

Probably a bit too late for that. I prefer night vision goggles anyway.

Perhaps you’re right.

Well….. if you ever hear about some dude in the Midwest going off the rails and screaming, “I am the god Zovalex!” and subsequently suiciding himself, you’ll know it was the little white bar!

I get this too, it's some sort of horizontal flickering effects.

I use Google Chrome.

I think it's when your browser is set to a certain degree of magnification because it goes away when you enlarge or reduce the size of the fonts by using CTRL + Mouse Wheel.

Try it and see if it goes away, hold CTRL and use your mouse wheel.

Not sure about that. Happens only on Safari for me. No zoom. But only periodically.

Or just enjoy some night vision goggles and ignore it. Much more fun.
