If you live in San Francisco, you can access the NYT app without paying for a subscription, as your public library system already has a deal with NYT.

It's a slight hassle as you need to go to a web site to get a code every 3 days, but it's probably preferable for those who don't read it every day: https://sfpl.libanswers.com/friendly.php?slug=faq/166904

Or you can just open an article in Incognito mode.

Interesting. How does it verify that you're a SF resident?

Uh, you realize that abusing that probably means they'll have to cancel the public service at some point, right?

Any idea how much NYTimes gets for this deal?
