They don’t say, but it’s probably the AI-ification of Google Search that done 'em in. That, and I can’t remember any particularly better-than-average journalism from Salon since the 2000s.

0·9 months agoCrap. Obviously, I’m gonna gotta stop using archive.today, but it’s the only way around paywalls at numerous sites.
Removepaywalls.com (plural) inserts ads, often for shady operations.
Removepaywall.com (singular) usually works, but it’s tricky sharing the links (i.e., “choose option 2” or “choose option 4”).
Byebyepaywall.com has old, dead options.
Wayback Machine bombs out a lot.
And ghostarchive.org is successful so rarely it’s really a last resort.
Anyone know of any others?
Believe it if and when you see it. Until then, no letting up.
0·3 years agoHuh. I’d thought of Vox as being a reasonably reliable site, but handing a page over to a shill and not even telling readers he’s a shill… Jeez, even Fox News identifies the shills with a chyron.
$2,500 ain’t even a calculable fraction of a fraction of a percent for Citibank, but it’s more than everything for a lot of ordinary folks. Push people too far and they’ll snap.
