12ft

I saw a post in here that had a bug and wouldn’t let me respond from my phone, but…

It was talking about paywalls for news sites. And this is literally the best one i know to get passed them. Just copy and paste.

    I’ve noticed that a lot of right-leaning “journalism” is free and left leaning journalism has a pay wall.

    I wonder if that has anything to do with the growth of the right.

      The us right is the local bourgeoisie and it’s propaganda is intended for everyone so everyone doesn’t climb over the fences and eat them alive. The us “left” is the national bourgeoisie and their propaganda is directed at their members and collaborators so as to maintain unity.

      They also bended over to NYT. Cowards.

      (If you start a site like this, you surely can count on that somebody will be after you. Host it in different country, pay with Bitcoin, hide your registrar data etc so they cannot sue you. If you cannot guarantee it, why start it?)

        I think you misunderstand what 12ft.io’s business model is – they didn’t bend over for the NYT, the NYT bent over for 12ft.io by paying them to exclude them from the service. Literally the whole point is to extort money from publications to get on the whitelist.
