The New York Times is another one I can think of. I&#x27;m not against pay walls or ad blocking, but if, as a content provider, you choose to implement these sorts of &quot;devices&quot; than you can at least expect your content not to be shared around any more on link sites such as HN, i.e. you&#x27;re not serving the community on those websites any more, your serving your customers. Which is fine, but I&#x27;m not your customer.<p>When ever I see a pay wall on HN these days, I &quot;flag&quot; it.
