Quick response from them to say, paraphrased, some manufacturers don't make their datasheets available.

Someone from USA reported issues earlier in the thread.

Recall that what first caught my attention was the lack of datasheets on RS for TI products, and further searching showed the same at LCSC: TI product? no datasheet; non-TI? datasheet. There are some counter-examples but as a general rule that seems to be the position, and it seems a rather strange one to encourage design-in of parts.

Don’t forget that neither RS nor LCSC is an authorized TI distributor. Not sure if you are aware that 2 years ago, TI ended distribution through all but a tiny handful of distributors (Digi-Key and Mouser being the main two). Everyone else got dropped. I figure they’re selling off their remaining stock, but their business relationship with TI is over. That may have had repercussions with regards to sharing documentation.

LMAO at that brain-dead response. RS is probably still salty about being dropped.

An idea for those having trouble: try changing your DNS server address to see if the problem goes away. For testing purposes, try Google’s DNS: 8.8.8.8

Ah, I didn't know that. Even so, I'd've thought they would be keen to have their data spread far and wide - in the end it is advertising, and we all know how difficult it is to block that!
Re: DNS. Don't think it's that since Vivaldi works, but I'll try changing it when I'l less likely to screw up something major...
Edit: Vivaldi didn't work originally, but it was a relatively old version. And update later it was fine, which is partly what makes me think it is some new W3C thing.

I suspect the links were indeed borked at the server and don't work with all browsers. I can't access them from a Chromium browser on my laptop but I am able to do so on my cellphone with FF and Chrome.
That or there may be cached copies being returned across the various places.
Just to keep up with the trend, I send a copy attached I just downloaded from my phone.
