  Damn those pesky journalists doing all the research and legwork to discover and explain information (and doing it over and over again to the point where they become a useful and trusted news source) and then expecting to get paid for it. Don't they realize that the sharing economy means I get to use all your stuff whenever I feel like it? The workaround is not difficult, deal with it.

    > The workaround is not difficult, Several people have said that the work around is not working for them. That's the whole point of the thread. It's in the OP, it's in several replies. Most people wouldn't mind paywall links if the workaround was working, but it's not working for some people.

    Nobody is saying that journalists shouldn't be compensated for their work. The discussion, as Dan pointed out, is about whether articles behind paywalls, that can no longer be penetrated using the usual tricks, hacks and incantations have any place on the site if they can't be read by the majority of the community. Oh and this: >"deal with it" Really? Please contain your unwarranted indignation.

    The first part of Your response is a non sequitur. The problem is the workaround doesn't work for what is clearly a large percentage of this forums population
