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.

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!

do not right click inspect element on the paywall window and then delete the code & re-enable scrolling (i always forget how to, but don't google it)

the downside is that sometimes half the article is neutered anyway

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

we all need to consider, it costs money to fund quality journalism. we have to be aware of the many forces working against basic silly journalism, like what's happening at the school board.

This must be like the disclaimer warnings on those "vine bricks" that were popular during Prohibition.

Huh. I just Ctrl+P before the paywall comes up. Then I can print to a PDF and view it the way it was meant to be.

That's exactly what the 3rd post said.
