You will go straight to jail 😡😡😡
You must log in or register to comment.
my browser always asks if I want the simplified view which always bypasses the paywall
not NOT use firefox’ reading mode.
And God forbid if someone uses archiving sites like archive.is!
Truly awful. How will the news megacorp get its money? You wouldn’t steal the information required for you to be aware of world events? Right?

If you just want to be aware, you could often read the headlines for free or follow news sites like Reuters, AFP, or AP.
They are primarily wire news companies and are a great way to get reliable, truthful and often free news. If you want to read longer articles, you should pay if you want to have articles to read in the future.
I just hope nobody clicks the reader view button in the top right, it would be just terrible if they got an ad free, paywall free version of the site
Click reader view and refresh, without leaving reader view.
I do that a lot on my phone but keep forgetting it’s a thing on desktop for some reason.
Lol same, keep wishing I could’ve a text to speech on PC just like the mobile version… And it’s actually there.
12ft.io almost never works for me tbh.
Also, appending before something is called prepending, similar to how a prefix after something is a suffix.
Yup. They went full OG AdBlock and got WaPo and other major publications to prevent them from working.
You can mimic what they did by adding the Google Crawler user agent to your browser but I just use archive.is
I’d like to prepend that this dude is correct.
Or the appendix of a book
I got my prependix taken out as a kid due to an infection.
Ever had someone ask to prepone a meeting?
Precrastination is when you get too far ahead on a group project because you’re avoiding another awfuller thing.
We know what cum and precum are. But what’s postcum 🤔🌌🤔
Creampie, or santorum depending on which orifice it leaks out of…
honestly i wish we called the gallbladder the prependix
Science may not call it that, but we can.
Archive.is is definitely not an alternative that people should use in this situation
Nor archive.ph, which appears to be the same site? Idk how that works. Definitely not a site anyone should go to, though.
Nor archive.md nor archive.today, which appear to be run by the same rogue actors and serve the same content as archive.is and archive.ph. Beware.
Definitely don’t use uBlock Origin’s zapper mode to get rid of elements on the page that are blocking your view.
I have been using inspect element to manually remove ads and other annoying things
Thanks for reminding me!
I’ve used ublock for years and only recently discovered the zapper and it’s my new favorite thing on the internet
I don’t generally use it, but safari got this baked in recently
I often forget YouTube shorts are a thing because i zapped them away.
You sir are a gentleman and a scholar, cheers for this
Then you just get an unblocked half an article
On mobile Firefox, two right swipes in the middle of the screen closes zapper mode. It is not clear or obvious, but it works.
cocks the element zapper Say hello to my little friend!
^ This person adblocks
Disabling JavaScript through ublock origin also does the same (horrible) thing, frequently.
Back during prohibition in the US, there was a product called Vine-Glo that was a brick of grape concentrate. It came with a warning: “After dissolving the brick in a gallon of water, do not place the liquid in a jug away in the cupboard for twenty days, because then it would turn into wine.”
Definitely don’t install the bypass paywalls clean extension or script so you don’t have to take a single manual action to get around them. That would be extremely contraversial!
Thank you so much! I already did it! (Smash Ctrl+P as fast as possible)
feds coming fo yo ass now you better run
One person downvoted? Are they stupid or something? Asking for a friend.
Sometimes I’m scrolling and my thumb gets lazy and goes sideways and I upvote or downvote things unintentionally.
It’s the only explanation that makes sense
For poorly paywalled sites, just hit F9. Displays screen reader text. Accessibility, y’all.
Will someone PLEASE think of the shareholders?!
If a website sends all the data of an article to you, it’s yours. They can’t take it away. There’s no basis to make the argument anything is owed to the website at that point.
Thank you for the great advice. We should share this to a maximum of people. We don’t want people to get in trouble for violating copyright especially when done accidentally.
