While I fully agree with this sentiment generally, I wonder what people think of NPR and WaPo in comparison (both give much less choice than Engadget).

I seem to see this complaint on every Verizon-property article posted, but NPR and WaPo get excused?

I wonder is it just a UX difference?

European here, the NPR plain text site is a joy to use and I consider it one of the best and most compliant solutions, If I accidentally click a WaPo link I just navigate away from the paywall. Same with TechCrunch.
I agree. I can read NPR. uMatrix prevents that website from loading at all, so I never read the article.

A noticeable chunk of the Internet is now inaccessible to me, and I believe it's actually not for the worse...
