Why, tho?
Honestly I’d guess it’s an oversight
I’m 99% sure it’s something they just apply to all pages, not something done on purpose
Mindlessly shoving a paywall on every page on the site is both lazy and indicative of their priorities. Nobody has to do it purposefully for it to still be shitty and revealing.
Let’s you can read the privacy policy and stuff like that…
I’m not sure that’s better, though.
They are pissed their advertising dollars have been going away, and won’t put any effort to make a solution that makes sense for non paying visitors.
Also fuck you pay me
What a great idea. Next time someone asks me my name and to tell them a bit about myself, I’ll tell them to pay up first.
Police! Identify yourself!
Sure, just join my paid subscription!
They will literally sell their own grandmother for clicks.
Tells you everything you need to know XD
Check if the Impressum is also behind a paywall. Then they’re seriously in trouble :D
Lock it behind a pihole.
I mean it’s still shitty, but just based on this image, they’re only requiring a free account, not a subscription
You will most definitely need to enter credit card information during sign up
If it were labeled a trial account, not a free account, I might agree. But i think it’s more for harvesting contact details and hoping for a paid subscription down the line.
