Paywalls drive me absolutely nuts on sites like the New York Times. I get it, they have to make money and physical newspaper sales are dying. Surviving in a digital age, sure. For some reason I am more likely to seek out the information elsewhere for free than to pay for it/ I have no sense of loyalty to those publications or their journalists.
