    The Guardian doesn’t have a paywall. They do have a ‘tell us your email’ pop-over that you can dismiss without giving them your email.

      Very weird. I am not able to dismiss the pop-up request for money that covers the entire page. There is no option to bypass or dismiss this pop-up on my screen. I am on Firefox with uBlock on Android, btw.

        I am using Adguard, side load paid version, and haven’t had any issues. Maybe try turning desktop mode on or off? Unfortunately, I don’t use Firefox, so I don’t know how it works. Does it have a “simplified reader” view? Clear cache/cookies?

        Tried with firefox + ublock origin on Android, and the pop-up has an ‘x’ on the top right, I touch to make it go away.

            Only thing I can suggest at this point is to copy-paste the URL into archive sites, which often strip that kind of pop-over away.

            The big issue is that the one that’s best at that, https://archive.today is run by somebody who wants to get approximate location info from the DNS requests, which recent versions of Firefox block.
