This man’s entire argument is completely terrible for two reasons: 1) The example he uses is The Epoch Times, a questionable source even on the best of days.

This man’s entire argument is completely terrible for two reasons: 1) The example he uses is The Epoch Times, a questionable source even on the best of days. 2) What he refers to as “spam” is a paywall. He is literally taking away from business opportunities for this outlet that produced a piece of content he wants to draw attention to, but he does not want to otherwise support. He’s a taker. And while the Wayback Machine is very useful for sharing archived information, that’s not what this guy is doing. He’s trying to undermine the business model of the outlets he’s reading. The Epoch Times is one thing—it’s an outlet that is essentially propaganda—but when he does this to a local newspaper or an actual independent media outlet, what happens?
