There isn't one. As far as I know, no one really knows for sure how they bypass all these paywalls. (Most credible theory I heard: They actually just pay for the subscriptions.)
Many sites including Bloomberg have evolved such that even archive.today don’t have the full text of any articles. They’re doing no giveaways whatsoever.
That comment is weirdly confusing/confused. But if you try archiving any site on ghostarchive, or clicking on any existing ghostarchive links, it just says "site is down for maintenance".
For now I've given up on using any archiving sites until we can find a safe and reliable alternative.
Most paywalls just allow search engines to read their content just fine. Because they do want discoverability, they want their cake and eat it.
There's a few publications that don't even do that though and archive.is is very good at bypassing them so I do imagine they use logins for those, but for the masses of sites it's not currently necessary.
Google isn't the only search engine in the world of course. It probably is pretty much the only one that matters in America but the world is not just America either.
They have. It's called bypass-paywalls-clean . It works pretty ok.
It just keeps getting banned from the addon catalogs because of complaints from media. The Firefox one was taken down by a french newspaper. So you have to sideload it, which is hard to do on Android.
Hmm yeah but their adversaries did achieve their goal by pushing it away from the mainstream sites. Now we're into this situation of "how much do I trust this vague Russian site with my browsing activity".
At least the addon declares the sites it's for and ignores the rest but still I'm a lot less comfortable with it. It's more something I'd install in a container now, limiting its usefulness :(
Has people's ability to read messages and formulate sensible replies been going down of late? I see this kind of meaningless replies more and more often these days.
