or more accurately, how to get around them.

12ft Ladder by Thomas Millar uses a very clever approach - pretend to be the Google crawler!

Does not work for every site (some sites are clearly more serious about locking away their content - one could ask why they even bother publishing on the web?) but works for many.

Only negative is that the code behind 12ft is not available. Which means that the service will only live for as long as the domain stays up, which by the way is hosted by Vercel. Also, any article URLs (along with other metadata such as your IP address) might be logged by the web service or their service providers.
