Looks like they track the number of visits you've made to the WSJ in the past. If you use an incognito window you can still use the Google search results.

Nope. This stopped working for me about a month ago.

It depends on the article. Some of the articles it works for, others it doesn't.

It's only no longer true if you use an ad blocker. I switched off uBlock, and links from Google and shares work again. They made some kind of change that is ad blocker sensitive relatively recently. My friend who reports for WSJ confirms.

Worked for me. Are you sure?

Edit: It doesn't work when I try it in a regular tab, but it works in incognito on Chrome.
