Another hack....if you go to a news website that charges your (sometimes after you've view a handful of articles each month from them), just cut and paste the link into an incognito mode window. In Chrome, you go to the three dots on the upper right hand side, click "New Incognito Window" and paste the link.

Since they cannot put a cookie on your workstation to know if you've ever viewed, you get right in.

am working some security guidelines with our chief security officer. We need to turn off access to several web sites. Problem is, many of the solutions use this by using cookies. If you go into incognito, cookies are useless. different problem but in the convo our CSO turned me onto how to defeat the pay per view problem.
