Why do I get this error message "FORBIDDEN" when trying to read web data?

I'm trying to copy the text from this URL: https://seekingalpha.com/article/4119881-activision-blizzard-atvi-q3-2017-results-earnings-call-transcript?part=single
And get the following (attached) error message.
Why am I getting this and how can I work around it? All I simply want to do is copy the text data on the page.
Thank you!

The page has protections against automated access.
For example when you access with webread() then by default no browser information is sent.

Thank you, Walter. Do you know of a good workaround using MatLab or any other methods? Or do the page restrictions basically prohibit any sort of automated process to run on it?
