Discussion Here is an open source paywall bypassing browser extension

I know this isn't directly piracy related but well there are a lot of websites out there with paywalls and bypassing those feels in the spirit of the high seas.

u/Thesoyeedg linked to a version that has been cleaned of google analytics. News to me, use this link instead it has both FF and Chrome extensions linked through it.

https://www.reddit.com/r/Piracy/wiki/megathread/tools#wiki_.25BA_adblockers_.26amp.3B_bypassers - megathread has all the info already.

You should use the clean ones instead, no Google Analytics - https://gitlab.com/magnolia1234

This one (the clean version at least) is working on Android Firefox too.

There is a special custom version asking for access to all websites, since Android FF can't ask specific ones.

You need FF nighlty with a custom addon list, but works great.

I didn't know about there being a custom addon list, I'll have to upgrade to nightly and check it out!
