They already make money on the ads, and of course you have to make an account, so they sell your info... and then they fire the journalists... I would pay for a good source of real new that didn't have ads and didn't sell my info. But they don't exist.

What ads? I don't see any ads.

Their privacy policy also doesn't seem too bad compared to most services.

and of course you have to make an account, so they sell your info... and then they fire the journalists...

What are you talking about? Do you think a 170 year old newspaper is an exit scam designed to get personal data, sell it, and then fuck off?

I encountered many New York times articles behind a paywall. I was :o that this wasn't behind a paywall for me.

I use archive.md for paywalls.

I hope the New York times doesn't sell user data. If it does, public rage can move it from being 1 of the top news sites to the bottom.
