i have been trying to access articles of this website. i have tried 'bypass paywall clean' plugin and other solutions i could find (ublock zapper, 123ft like websites, CSS of the said webpage, publicly 'free' AI models).

I know the developer of this website. It's hard paywall. You won't be able to bypass it by modifying the elements in any sense.

As you mentioned in some other comments, only the currently archived ones will be available. If you are looking for just this specific article, let me know, I will archive and share the link here. If you are looking for a method to bypass it entirely, I don't think it's possible.

Also I assume you are not in a position to afford the subscription. It's fairly decent considering the quality of articles. So whenever you can afford it, subscribe and support them. Nowadays good long form articles are non existent in Indian media.

you are right journalism like that is rare. it is expensive and i cant afford it as of now. when i can i will pay.

there isnt just one article there wil be many in future, given how investigative they are. that is why i was trying to find a temp solution for a while.

can you delve into technology used for such paywalls ? did the dev tell you anything? i would like to learn if there is anything beside JS and usual stuff i am seeing.
