The CIA's bogus vaccine incident is well documented
The particular behavior you describe is typically a product of "lazy loading" where site operators try to cut down on either initial load time or bandwidth by only loading part of the page on the initial request, then filling in the blanks as you scroll down. It's annoying as hell, but it's fortunately not really part of responsive design.
Responsive design is great when executed with any level of care.
In the real world "an ethical obligation" is no obligation at all. Nice circlejerk of an article, though.

Implement two factor authentication. It's not hard program nowadays and it makes your login system far more resilient to password related fuckups from your users.
A job is done correctly iff the guy in charge is happy with his job done correctly.
This is a reliable way to fuck up a software project
You've got it all wrong. Programmers and artists get to keep all the love, while the owners of the company get to keep all the money. It's a win-win.
I need you to tell me something besides "reset the modem"
"I'm afraid I can't do that"
Sure, but a programmer that doesn't know CSS is pretty limited!
Surely you realize that scanning and creating a workable computer index of this material is a huge task
"If they don't like cancer, they're free to find another job!"
If there's no money in fast food, where did such a quantity of restaurants come from? Why is so much spent on advertising and infrastructure? It's huge!
Sorry, that was 1996. I don't think it "forced" anyone to become salaried on its own, but it did give employers the right to deny overtime.
Between equal rights, force decides; unorganized workers have basically no force compared to the company.
See what that gets you after a few years when your salary has effectively dropped 5% due to raises failing to keep pace with inflation. Where do you turn when all the jobs in town are shit and your pay is stagnating? There's not always an individual option available.
At that point, the only option left will be collective action against the company. The only question remaining is how long it will take for tech workers to pull their heads out of their asses and realize that half of them will never afford retirement at the current pace of things.
The brain is a wonderful organ; it starts working the moment you get up in the morning, and does not stop until you get to work.
