Just a story about somebody doing something nice. Newer ». New York Times and possibly other publications have gotten wise to that site's tricks, but it does work as advertised for bunch of others. I use it about as often as I use Just The Recipe , which strips random food blogger pages of all the "Back when I was a little girl on the farm" bullshit. The author would like you to subscribe to help keep this service floating. I wonder if the irony is lost on them.

The motivation makes little sense to me. They could block the Google spider from getting the full content for free just like any other non-paying rando, and just serve it the same teaser content. This seems like a pretty week excuse for bypassing a paywall. A service like 12ft. Then if I put on a clown nose and take the stuff, I'm completely in the right. If the purveyor does not agree then they can: 1. Not put the stuff on the public sidewalk, but offer it inside their store only. Have the cashier, validate that the the customer holds a clowning license issued by the state and is a member in good standing of some clowning association. The argument is not at all anyone is entitled to the stuff no matter what, even in the face of protective measures like 1 and 2. If that doesn't reflect the purveyor's intent, then they have a clear technological avenue for securing the protected content to authenticated users only. I see it in reverse: the reason some news sites struggle to make money is their belief in a broken business model that's perpetuated by mega-corps like Google. The rules of the game are rigged; house always wins. The only way to win is to not play. I wouldn't say this "justifies" a service like 12ft. Yes, because I will subscribe to your site because I want to read one article on it.

The old business model failed when people stopped buying physical newspaper copies and this is what they came up with. Attempting to reconnect. 11 foot paywall who aren't are forced to optimize for email capture so they can market directly to you.

The tool, which allows users to avoid paying subscriptions, was developed to protest the way websites are designed to suit Google Search by exploiting that design itself. Technology reporter AlexMartin. A website designed to help internet users get around paywalls has begun asking those users to subscribe to cover its costs. The tool, 12ft, allows people to avoid paying subscriptions to access news and academic journals that restrict who can read them. Paywalls are a popular method of ensuring subscriptions within the news industry, partly due to the industry losing an growing share of the advertising market to the "de-facto duopoly" of Google and Facebook. The tool's creator, Thomas Millar, claims to have created it at the beginning of the COVID pandemic when he was doing research and found that eight of the top 10 links on Google were paywalled.

B y now, most people have encountered a news paywall. Over the past decade, many major news publishers have embraced paywalls in Europe and the US. Running a newsroom is a costly endeavour, and many readers are more than happy to pay for the news. The need for reliable information is more important than ever in our post-pandemic world, with wars and polarising topics like immigration resulting in a deluge of misinformation online. On the other hand, there will always be those who try to circumvent paywalls to access the news for free. Now, a website that was gaining traction for allowing people to do just that has gone dark.

I hate the NYT, therefore, despite the fact that my library has a subscription, I prefer to jump paywalls. I'm blowed if I'm going to pay a months subscription to read one article that may, or may not, be of interest. I agree that regulation was a bad example. Unfortunately there aren't a lot of easy online options for when you're just interested in picking up an article or even an issue of a publication behind a paywall every now and again. Look at the developments of Blendle. A lot of sites ended up with a looseness in the paywall basically to ensure people landing from a search result got "first page free" style visibility. Of course Google doesn't index my company's private intranet. The popular browsers and JavaScript seem like they are the problem, or at least a fundamental part. It seems the JS interpreter is not in the browser for the user to write and run her own scripts to improve her UX but for website operators to run their own scripts, without any prior selection or approval from users, in order to benefit their own interests. How did you figure this out? Blam, there is the whole article.

I don't feel comfortable installing your application on the desktop. Overtonwindow on Dec 25, prev next [—] I love this. Not that I particularly agree. Unfortunately there aren't a lot of easy online options for when you're just interested in picking up an article or even an issue of a publication behind a paywall every now and again. Specifically that a site presents a different version of a page to the GoogleBot than it does the person clicking on a search result, which is a no-no for which you can get nuked if you're a nobody. Metered and freemium paywalls offer a taster of news for free, which can include some unrestricted content for readers to browse or a select number of articles per month. Why you can trust Sky News. Why would they want that, they should be relevant enough with just the first few paragraphs and not need the complexity. We have subscriptions for 3 major news outlets, so we're not against paying for content we'd use regularly. The site, known as 12ft Ladder, boldly proclaimed that it could override online paywalls.
