I keep thinking that some relatively-simple plugin is going to be made which allows for easy, instantaneous, irreversible access to news/blog articles — obviously a centralized issuer could accomplish this, or preferably a blockchain that isn't so slow nor expensive to utilize — and provides some privacy from data aggregation.
One of many reasons I don't PAY for news websites (let alone blogs) is because there is not an easy method to do so without having to create logins and then be trace-able [i.e. tracked]. The cost isn't really an issue, but until I can easily pay to read content, I will just continue to access archived copies of anything behind paywall [but WOULD rather pay writers!].
My ideal environment would be something like Privacy dot COM which allows you to create burning credit card accounts for each purchase — e.g. so that I could utilize above-described plugin to pay for content, quickly and cheaply (per article), that does not track me as a reader.
