Spotify Finally Readies an IPO That’s Not an IPO

• problems 10y ago
  I'm getting really annoyed with these damn paywall sites. Anyone have a suggestion for a good browser extension (preferably for Firefox) to solve this issue? I think a simple facebook, reddit or twitter referral injection would do the job... Wondering how this sort of paywall stuff would hold up against a bot that produces a blogspam-y summary based on several news articles - just buy 1 account for the bot, push with a few ads to as many people as you can. Perfectly legal for a human to do it.

    I think flagging paywalled articles if workarounds don't work is fine. Discussing paywalls is contrary to hn philosophy.
