Had A Minor Crisis When 12ft.io Went Down Yesterday And Thankfully It's Back Now But This Seems Like

had a minor crisis when 12ft.io went down yesterday and thankfully it's back now but this seems like a good opportunity to compile a list of similar paywall-evading tools in case 12ft ever gets canned for real:

12ft.io: the legend himself. definitely my favorite of the bunch by virtue of being the easiest to use (and the easiest url to remember), but it's configured to disable paywall evasion for a handful of popular sites like the new york times, so you'll have to go elsewhere for those.

printfriendly: works great; never had any issues with removing paywalls, even on domains that don't work with 12ft.io. since this site is literally designed to make sites print-friendly, it might simplify the overall formatting of the page you're trying to access, which can be a good or bad thing. my only real issue is that the "element zapper" (which lets you remove content blocks from the print-friendly preview) is a little sensitive if you're browsing on a touchscreen device, which means you might accidentally delete a paragraph when you're just trying to scroll. but if that happens you can reload the page and it'll revert everything back to its original state.

fifteen feet: basically a 12ft clone, minus 12ft's restrictions. haven't used it much since I only discovered it yesterday in the wake of 12ft's 451 error but it seems to do the trick.

archive.today: an archival tool very similar to the wayback machine, but it also works as a de facto paywall removal tool. (the wayback machine seems to remove paywalls as well, but archive.today has better UX imo and is way faster to use.)

and an honorable mention for sci-hub: only works for scientific/academic journals, not random news articles, but the other sites listed above only work for random news articles and not academic publications so you gotta have this one in your toolbelt for full coverage. pubmed is your oyster.

the first campaign for kholood smeer (@kholoodpals) has not reached its goal yet, and donations have slowed down as well. the violence in palestine hasn't stopped and the remnants of it still take a toll beyond the basic necessities of a person, kholood has been displaced, her campaign for her family and herself has been open for months and it was meant just as a first step in helping them heal, yet not even this has been realised.

kholood doesn't lose hope, neither do i, so she wants to encourage people to help her in rebuilding her life and her family's life, she has decided to give away two items of her own in a raffle: a necklace and a kuffiyeh of her own that she will be sending to two people that win the raffle.

to participate first you must donate to kholood's campaign.

send proof of your donation through this form.

the raffle will run from january 23rd to february 16th, 12:00am gmt +2 time.

the first prize: the kuffiyeh will be for the person that donates the BIGGEST amount and submits proof through the form.

the second prize: the necklace will be selected at random by kholood from the entries of all that donate and submit proof through the form. you can enter as many times as you want to, EACH DONATION counts as a participation for this prize.

you must be comfortable giving us a shipping address.

the winners will be announced by tagging in this blog and we will dm you for the shipping address once that happens.

join us, please, thanks for reading.

A Raffle For Kholood

£2100/£5000.
