[QUOTE="Matt5, post: 77644113, member: 420229"] Websites make the bypass option available, but they don't have to. They can make it impossible or very hard to bypass if they want to. Many websites want their articles viewable if found via Google search. If I just Google search for a title or snippet of text, then I'm in. Or some other website may have that exact article. I guess it all depends on how you bypass. I'm not going to break into a website in order to view an article, but I might Google search for it in order to see if other viewing options are available. Sometimes that means I just don't get to read the article. [/QUOTE]
