I’ve tried several times, but th page is just unreadable for me! I like to click the page and highlight words as I read. However, the interactive side bar moves the page and kills your (my) ability to read. So despite being signed up for the last few months, I haven’t ever made it past the first couple of pages :(

Can I not just have the PDF to read? The problems ultimately stem from the desire to prevent people from consuming the content in their own way.

It's usually easier to just look for the paper somewhere else once you've decided you want to read it your own way. In this case, you can find it here [0]. As they often show kind-of-classic papers, many of them are publicly available through a Google search.

Thanks for this solution! I had just assumed it would be too difficult to find elsewhere :/

Thanks for this solution! I’ll disable it just for the site
