I was trying to read an article from the Atlanta Journal Constitution through Archive.ph and then RemovePaywall.com. Guess what? The news organizations have figured out how to block these websites from accessing the text.
It’s all just nonsense.
Any other alternatives?

I just noticed this yesterday, OP. Ugh.

I just used .ph to post a WaPo article here. I posted the link below.
So I wish I could help you, OP -- but it worked for me.

I’m trying to read this one and it’s the one that’s not working.

I just read an NYT story that was posted to the NYT website two hours ago.
Stories just don't automatically appear on Archive.ph. Someone has to post the story to the archive and that often takes a little bit of time.
Sometimes it takes a few minutes for stories to appear there. Sometimes hours.

I wonder if it’s because I’m also a NYT subscriber, but I was just able to access it through archive.ph.

I think that's exactly what has confused OP. Phew!

R9 read down into the article. The AJC article after the first two paragraphs is there, backwards.
Odd.

Oops, I didn't read that far, R10! Sorry.
That is really strange.

I'm not R5 but it worked for me, R9.

R12 please read the third and fourth paragraph.

Why are you trying to read an AJC article about Georgia’s dying counties? That’s kind of niche. I can think of a lot better subjects to read about.

Reading the AJC was something I did less and less over the time I lived in Atlanta. I would imagine almost any county S of Atlanta is dying.

Archive.ph still works fine for me, except that many news media links now use the *share.google/* format link as in this example
https [bold]share.google/[/bold]jV1E4eM8LQXhn78wc
Archive.ph just grinds away or stalls, unable tondo anything with these. It was a few initially, but now this format is in the majority to my experience.

Now it works...

R14 because it popped up on my Facebook feed because a friend shared it.
