I created a small greasemonkey script to set the referrer on all wsj websites to google. Works like a champ!

- PawelDecowski 12y agoIsn’t that against Google’s T&Cs? I’m sure a website is not allowed to present different content to GoogleBot than it does to regular users. Not sure if there’s a rule that says it can’t present different content when a user clicks on a search result vs goes directly to the website or from another referrer.
