- rjf72 7y agoBrave browser is far ahead of the game on this front. They enable you to disable scripts on a per-domain basis with a single click. Go to the site, lion icon -> click on block scripts, paywalls are gone with none of this bother with incognito modes, email generators, or other awkward work arounds. Works for NYT, WaPo, and most any site that relies on bait and switch paywalls.
