Definitely don't agree. I don't think you should be shown the content, if for example:

1. You're in a country the site owner doesn't want to do business in.

2. You've installed an ad blocker or other tool that the site owner doesn't want you to use.

3. The site owner has otherwise identified you as someone they don't want visiting their site.

You are welcome to try to fool them into giving you the content but it's not your right to get it.
