Hacker News Reader

I clear cookies on Chromium and see it. But Bloomberg is getting as annoying NYTimes (where I also clear cookies).

It is only paywalled if you let your browser run the javascript served from the site. Blocking all the JS with NoScript results in being able to read the article with no paywall.

In Chrome, you can also do per-site Javascript blocking. Blocking Javascript from [*.]bloomberg.com in preferences will let you read Bloomberg without problems.

They will get wise to this eventually and start loading their articles using javascript. Business Insider already loads their images with javascript.

Half-load + Firefox reader mode

Weird. I didn't run into that with Firefox.

I do turn off javascript for specific sites using Chrome. That does defeat some paywalls.
