So using warez sites and downloading cracked apps is how you demonetize those who make their living writing software? The economic impact of warez sites and outline.com are the same, they just impact different industries.

Yes that rules also. Information and technology should be free.

I have no problem with treating paywall like warez and banning them. The problem I have is that I can't escape paywall like I can warez.

Paywall clogs my search results and my fora even though I don't want it.

Give me a way to never see paywalled results and outline.com will cease to exist for me.

"I don't want to pay, but I still want to see it."

Here's your problem. It's not that they exist, it's that you still want the content, for which they are trying to gain an income.

Are you all being deliberately obtuse? Quoting myself:

"Give me a way to never see paywalled results and outline.com will cease to exist for me."

I DON'T WANT TO SEE PAYWALLED ARTICLES! AM I MAKING MYSELF CLEAR?

I don't want them in my search results. I don't want them on my fora.

However, if you rudely shove them in my face in Google, HN, Reddit, etc., then please expect that if I read it (and I normally don't) then I will do so in such a way as to prevent you from monetizing your rude behavior.

Is that crystal fscking clear?

Find a business model that doesn't involve a paywall.
