Also works for most of those news sites like WSJ or NYT that only let you read a little bit, or block adblockers. Also some disable the scroll bar but if you go to the right side of the console after hitting F12 and look for the CSS element βoverflowβ and change it from βhiddenβ to βvisibleβ then you can continue scrolling for free. Might have to click around on different parts of the page to find it, but it should work.
Thereβs also a Firefox/Chrome extension called Behind The Overlay that does all that with one mouse click. Used it for years; what a time saver.
And if you encounter a true paywall, use Archive.TodayΒ to bypass it. Just paste the paywalled url into the blue βsearch archived snapshotsβ box near the bottom:
