Because paywalls are trivial to bypass and it's exhausting hearing people constantly complain about them. The GP in this thread has been on HN for 10 years. They should know how to bypass it by now. Hell, four minutes after they posted someone posted the bypassed link.

Not when some of us are in facilities with locked-down browsers with very strict CMMC requirements. That bypass doesn't get to exist for us.
The answer, plain and simple for any 5-year-old to see, is QUIT LINKING PAYWALLED ARTICLES. You want us to talk about something? We'd damn-well better be able to actually READ it so we can have an intelligent conversation about it.
Failing to do show shows 100% disingenuity in wanting to have an open conversation.
