Sites that don't zoom – why? how? workarounds?

Question

Some sites override control of zoom. It seems antithetical to the goals of the web, and just makes me want to modify my user-agent more to bypass their modifications.Do you know other sites that do this? Are there contexts where it's justifiable, or has a good reason?While playing with the new, wonderful vb.lk, I searched "vb.lk" and was directed to https://www.wiimhome.com/wiimvibelink/overview

I asked the same question here a while ago. I don't know any good reasons for disabling zoom, but I did learn how to override it at least:https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45289150#45319333

It would be easier to ask google than post here. It's the first google result for "blocking website scaling"Changing your user agent won't help. No half decent web developer has cared about since the 2000s.
