- dbg31415 8y agoSo, we should limit discussions on HN to people with WSJ subscriptions? I feel like anything posted here shouldn't be behind a pay wall. Especially such an easy to bypass pay wall. Kind of tempted to write a plugin that would change the referral URL from Hacker News to make it look like a Google Search just to get around this stuff once... I don't object to WSJ charging money, I just object to the way they give the article away if you Google it and try and charge for it if yo don't. It's silly.
- tomhoward 8y agoThe Google search workaround doesn't seem to work for WSJ anymore. Clicking through from Facebook seems to work. More reliably/simply, and for people not using Facebook, Archive.is and Archive.org always seem to work. Archive.is is my go-to and it works every time.
