Chinese Wording on Healthcare.gov Website??

Healthcare.gov Website ^ | 12/02/2013 | US Gov

[OKC Patriot]

While checking out the Healthcare.gov website I found a page that flashes between page loads that most likely should not be seen. Low and behold there is Chinese wording? What’s with that?

It flashes when doing a reload of this page: https://www.healthcare.gov/find-premium-estimates/

It would be interesting to know what it says… and why is Chinese wording on the US’s Healthcare website?

Outsourcing? Unbelievable.

why is chinese wording on the US’s Health-care website?

Somebody has to fund the chinese. Health-care is right and the website has to make available everyone signing up to lose everything. It is being done in the interest of fairness; done with a handshake, a wink, a nod and free hacking.

Relax, Americans.. we are not stealing Obamacare information.

Well, there are a few language links in the middle of the page. Chinese is one of them. The page re-loads too fast for me to see any writing in the background, other than the link for the Chinese language when the page loads.

Wow.. Ok here is a screenshot I was able to capture between loads.

Try to press your ALT and PRNT SCRN buttons at the very moment you see the suspect screen. That will give you a screen capture. Then open something like Paint or Word and do an Edit/”PASTE” of the screen. That should allow you to get a good copy of it.

I tried but I can’t see it. Different things happen on different browsers though.

Good screen capture. Somebody should know what that is.

Well it seems to be the same link as on the main Healthcare.gov page down towards the bottom.. Just an odd place to put Chinese text.. if you mouseover it on the main page it is a link to the Blog .RSS so to me it shoulf have said RSS or have the RSS image rather than the Chinese text.. looks like a cut and paste error by the coders.

All I see on my page in the same location is a symbol that looks like a staple. I click the link, and there is English text there with little blurbs of what’s going on.

I think we're looking at some sort of Opera issue. The source code for the page using something called "glyph-icons" to display the little RSS feed icon that you eventually end up seeing.

Here is a link called strange web icons where somebody mentions an unrelated issue that results in strange looking icons (one of them is "chinese looking").

Based on that, in my opinion, your browser is in between loading the actual "glyph" icon specified in the page's source code. In the meantime, Opera plucks some weird character out of its font library to substitute until the actual rss icon is loaded. Bottom-line...nothing nefarious here.

Here is a screenshot from the link I provided (note the "chinese" looking icon in the top right corner):

One other thing from the thread at the link. Somebody mentions:

Is there any news about this problem? I am using plex media server too and I get the same trouble. Korean icons instead Glyphicons... The problem only happen in Opera. Ok Under IE, Chrome & Firefox...

So I think it's just a very minor bug.

It's Mandarin short hand....
The translation is that this site and the ACA program hasn't got a Chinaman’s chance of survival.

I agree, it should have been the RSS feed icon, but it did not get loaded... odd that it goes through loading that page on the way to another page... not the best coding for the $$$.

[OKC Patriot]

True... but not hugh or series.. :) old-timer inside humor ;)

Is it just me but doesn’t that look like a map of Outer Space?

lol...Not sure but the words "film adulti" are certainly suspect.
