Full text of the notice at the top of the article:

"The following subscription-only content has been made available to you by an LWN subscriber. Thousands of subscribers depend on LWN for the best news from the Linux and free software communities. If you enjoy this article, please consider subscribing to LWN. Thank you for visiting LWN.net!"

At first glance it seems that they don't actually object to the article being shared.
