Thanks. We should have a bot that automatically does this for all paywalled links.

And also link to The Pirate Bay for torrents of software?

Normal software vendors are not normally so bad that it is justified to protect yourself in a way that hurts them. Granted, with the rise of built-in spyware we might eventually have to start doing that. (Or, more realistically, we could distribute patches.)

I’m responding specifically to the paywall concerns here. Clearly the person I’m talking to is interested in not paying for content.

When was there ever a post about non-FOSS here?

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3183323 and all the releases

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14308754 built on FOSS but not FOSS and obviously https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12967901

There are loads more but I'm not about to perform an exhaustive search

What if your publication is supported by the paywall?
