Failed to recognize titles of WeChat articles

more options

URLs begin with "mp.weixin.qq.com/s" are WeChat articles. When you open a WeChat article, the words shown on the tab is the author instead of the article title. Take the following article for example.

https://mp.weixin.qq.com/s/rEeMeBk83VYaaXcbWiXy3w

The title is "Why China’s E-commerce Model May Not Work Elsewhere". But the words shown on the tab is "SixthTone".

When I open the second link, this is what I get;

Sometimes the tab 'title' is different than what is displayed. Is the website that sends that data.

The title shown on the tab is correct initially -- as coded in the HTML, see attached screenshot -- but then it is modified by a script, right around the time the barcode appears. You can reload the page bypassing the cache (Ctrl+Shift+r) to observe the change.

I don't know why it is doing that.
