- (2025-05-20) Richard Dickson: Works fine, but my previous extension that did this was taken down for legals reasons, so I wouldn't count on extensions like this lasting.
- (2025-05-06) P F: Worked smoothly for me so far!
- (2025-04-27) Kelly Pamela: Not really that useful. It is similar to Paywall Buster and the other paywall removers. Basically it gets articles from Archive.Today and 12ft. For better choices to bypass paywalls, refer to The DiGiztal Bypass Paywalls Tips series: https://digiztal.blogspot.com/2024/08/how-to-read-articles-behind-paywall.html

- (2025-02-18) Tep Chantra: The extension in itself is essentially a redirect to the main website while also automatically trying to load your target site without the add. The extension works flawlessly. However, the main site's ability to bypass the paywall is a hit or miss sometimes and it really depends on how your target site implemented their paywall. With code constantly changing, I would imagine that the developer would have to continue to update the code on their site. So far though, I've had more successes than failures.
