If so, which one works or did your account get banned?

I've included a link for an app but it appears to be a couple of years old now and might not work.

 

Does anybody else get this message when trying to access articles?

I've updated bypass paywall and it's made no difference. I've also disabled my vpn and emptied my cache to little avail.

How do we get around this new problem please?

thanks

thanks for the clarification and link.

So which of the many xpi files should I be manually adding please?

I'm assuming its the one that says latest.xpi (and not the previously numbered files).

 

Although my version of Bypass hasn't been updated for over a year, it has been working fine.

But my latest attempt to read the New York Times indicates that it has been detected and/or blocked.

When I try to update it via https://gitflic.ru/ I can't seem to manually update it either. Firefox says the file is corrupt when I drag it into the browser or update (add) file via settings.

I'm assuming it's because it's a zip file but when I unzip the folder there are no files in there that firefox recognises for me to add (only a changelog, licence and readme).

Can someone please clarify - for me and anyone else likely to encounter similar issues in the future - what I might be doing wrong.

thank you!

 

I already have the latest 'bypass paywall' clean installed , but I'm finding one of two things lately : either some previous bypassed sites are becoming subject to restrictions or some recently accessible sites are now restricted.

Case in point: Vox.

When I try to read any articles on the site now , I keep getting blocked by a popup that tells me to become a paid member.

The site use to take pride in being (mostly) free but now it appears to be (mostly) paid.

Is there anyway of getting around this?

thanks
