How does this, (or 12ft.io for that matter) actually work? Client-side trickery? Magic cookies? Something like adblock?
EDIT: Apparently it just blocks JS and disguises itself as an SE crawler. This still doesn't work on sites like Bloomberg, and if I understand correctly nothing can be done there.
I use the Bypass Paywalls Clean extension in Firefox to access Bloomberg, among others. I had it installed before it got taken down, so be careful where you get it from nowadays.
The author moved the project to GitFlic: https://gitflic.ru/project/magnolia1234/bpc_uploads
It's not open source? Git repo just have Extensions binary file.
Yea I'm not gonna install binary extensions hosted on some Russian site
