    Ok, don't rail on me for this.
    I'm just putting it out there.
    If I want a sermon, I'll go to church.

    Every now and then folks post articles on ET that are behind paywalls.
    This website:
    https://archive.ph/

    Here's the trick.
    Say you click on an article that someone posted and its a paywall. Just copy the title.
    Put the title in Google and search.
    Obviously the article will come right up in the Google results.

    The link that you click on in Google.... copy that. Don't click on it, copy it, it's different from the one you initially went to where you first discovered that particular article was behind a paywall.

    Once you have that link copied, paste it in the above website in the box that says "My URL is Alive and Well". The red box.

    Hit the button and give it a few.
    Up pops your article.

    Like I said.... I'm just putting it out there.
    If you have a problem with these things, pfff, I agree.
    It is what it is though.
    We can't all subscribe to 15 different newspapers.
    If they were smart they'd all get together and make one package. IE NYT, WSJ, Bloomberg, Newsweek, USA Today, etc etc.
    One package.
    But they don't, so, whatever.
