Does anybody else get this message when trying to access articles?

I've updated bypass paywall and it's made no difference. I've also disabled my vpn and emptied my cache to little avail.

How do we get around this new problem please?

thanks

For your web browser, Add this to your uBlock Origin block list:

lemmy.dbzer0.com##.title:has-text(/nytimes.com/)

You can add additional sites, separated by pipes like this::

lemmy.dbzer0.com##.title:has-text(/nytimes.com|theverge.com|404media.co/)

This will turn this:

into this:

So you don't accidentally get interested in a bullshit paywalled article.

More and more sites are becoming hostile to VPN’s and flagging the IP’s of major providers. I’ve been encountering this more and more with proton VPN, though generally it still works fine

I wouldn't be willing to disable my vpn for the nyt so thanks for confirming that it wouldn't have made a difference. It appears that they now block everyone who doesn't let javascript freely do whatever it wants to fingerprint you or whatever. I'll not miss them too much.

Thanks for that.

I note that archive has a Firefox addon but I can't seem to see the icon in the toolbar anywhere after installing. It's only an issue because accessing the archive link direct makes me jump through security check hoops before being able to use it online.

I haven't used the addon. At this point, captchas are just kind of the cost of browsing with any fragment of privacy, unfortunately.

Archive . Is then paste the article name.

[–] alucard@feddit.org 11 points 10 hours ago

Doesn't it require the url? In any case, archive today or archive is is the way.

Got the same message since last Wednesday I think, not by trying to access articles, just playing their daily gameson mobile (Firefox)

I thought bypass paywall was dead?

[–] potatoguy@potato-guy.space 13 points 13 hours ago

It just moved to gitflic and now requires a manual install on their .xpi file.

How so you bypass paywall?

[–] rolandtb303@lemmy.ml 1 points 4 hours ago

archive.is then paste the url.

I got this just the other day. Turned off the paywall blocker I forgot I installed and it loaded fine after.
