I started to notice some people posting NYT, Bloomberg or other websites with hard paywalls, that leads to people in the comments that are unable to read the article to discuess the headline without any analysis and some times spreading misinformation, which cannot be countered by the article, due to the paywall.
Which bring me to this: Why does no one thought about blocking hard paywalled articles for the sake of quality of discussion?
Many of the articles from those platforms are useless noise, but I do still occasionally want to read something that’s posted. When that happens, I just F12 and bypass the paywall, or look for the comment that has the article text, from someone else who has already done that.
or go to archive.ph and check to see if they have the de-paywalled version
