If you press esc quickly after the text has loaded you can stop the pay/privacy wall from loading. It might take a couple of refreshes to get the timing right :)

On mobile you can quickly hit the X in the address bar as the page is loading, it accomplishes the same thing.

Nice tip! I assume the paywall is loaded by javascript?

People hate ads, people hate paywalls. We've really got to just choose one and accept it.
