hackernews egghead example failing with error

[vivekKodira]

Thank you for scriptkit. I'm enjoying it thoroughly.

I was following along with the exercise in egghead.io and noticed that the script now fails

// Name: hackernews

import "@johnlindquist/kit"

let response = await get("https://api.hackerwebapp.com/news");

inspect(response.data);

Running this results in the following error:

Ah. I just discovered that there is already a discussion on this topic. I'm also on a machine with zscaler. I will try on another machine without it and confirm.
