Bypass Paywalls web browser extension for Chrome and Firefox. - iamadamdev/bypass-paywalls-chrome

github.com

I put this as an extension on opera and firefox and neither works. am i just retarded and doing it wrong? anyone know of another way to get around paywalls?

 

[lurk]

just installed it and worked perfectly when i loaded up a random article on bloomberg. using firefox on linux.

edit: also have ublock origin, privacy badger and ghostery.

same as lurk, I'm using that on firefox and it works for many news sites and some not. Had to install it manually last week because mozilla removed it after receiving legal stuff.

 

[Baka]

what the fuck? any idea why mine isn't working then? I feel like whenever i do tech shit i follow the instructions perfectly and it never works

 

[Baka]

it's on firefox too. I am stumped

looool haha thanks man. I actually came in here just to link that and said it worked correctly now. Do you know why this one works and the other doesnt? is it related to ublock? i tried disabling that to see if it was that but it didnt seem to change anything

probably the addon doesn't have JS access and ublock has for some reason? NU-furfox has been experimenting with weird stuff like that and most of the paywalls are very basic JS scripts

my understanding is that hiking is just walking in the woods, with a backpack or a satchel for food so you can pretend to be a rugged outdoorsman.
Used to be great, but now white men have ruined it by inventing bushcrafting where they larp as french fur trappers.

sounds white to me i just walk into the forest in my normal clothes and maybe a pocket knife in case i find some mushrooms

I see. Normally I'd just go with disabling js to read an article but i need to search thru an archive which requires js.

that is very manly and i approve of your conduct.

I use brave, and all I have to do to make paywalls go byebye is to disable scripts. It works on a website to website basis, so you dont have to go around endlessly fiddling with buttons and knobs

Good call.
Mushrooms tend to sneak up on you.

Typical fairy circle of mushrooms waiting to surround an unwary wanderer that is distracted by the dread gazebo in the background.
Pay no attention to the lurking lawn tractor as everybody (not gonna imply mooby knows shit about shit, inadvertently or not) everyone knows that they are cowardly carrion feeders.

Edit: Accuracy
