12ft

I saw a post in here that had a bug and wouldn’t let me respond from my phone, but…

It was talking about paywalls for news sites. And this is literally the best one i know to get passed them. Just copy and paste.

      They also bended over to NYT. Cowards.

      (If you start a site like this, you surely can count on that somebody will be after you. Host it in different country, pay with Bitcoin, hide your registrar data etc so they cannot sue you. If you cannot guarantee it, why start it?)

        I think you misunderstand what 12ft.io’s business model is – they didn’t bend over for the NYT, the NYT bent over for 12ft.io by paying them to exclude them from the service. Literally the whole point is to extort money from publications to get on the whitelist.

    I use the “Bypass Paywalls Clean” extension for Firefox. I’d post a link to it on mozilla’s add-on store, but I found out they had to take it down.

    You can still install it manually by downloading the extension file.

    You can also achieve the same thing with ublock filters, instructions here (in the “How to bypass paywalled articles using uBlock Origin” section)
