It's not so bad if your mobile browser supports pinch to zoom.

Most mobile browsers support it out of the box. If the site designer set "user-scalable=no" in the meta viewport property, than that will prevent zooming. It's an accessibility issue and should be avoided.

iOS has ignored that meta tag for a while now.
