Chinese company acquired the domain, is sending different results based on HTTP headers, yeah. Beyond the fact that you shouldn't need the Polyfill library because browser makers are really rushing out updates, don't let someone else serve your JavaScript.

Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
