Bypass for The Athletic not working

[jayiyer]

1. Make sure uBlock Origin is installed. Yes
2. Bypass Paywalls version? 1.7.5
3. Chrome or Firefox? Chrome
4. Paste the article URL for the site you are having issues with. https://theathletic.com/2016781/2020/08/25/jose-mourinho-amazon-documentary-tottenham-all-or-nothing/
5. Describe the issue.

Hello,

Thank you for this Chrome extension.

Paywall bypass for The Athletic appears not to be working at the moment. Please see the attached screenshot.

I followed all the recommended steps and also deleted and re-installed the extension -- both did not seem to fix the issue.

Thanks

I can confirm this problem both on Chrome and Firefox with uorigin and cookies removed.

I was able to read articles from the Athletic up until yesterday ! But, it is not working for me today ! I have tried on Windows Edge, Chrome and Firefox, and also, on Firefox and Chrome on Linux. I have also tried the recommended troubleshoots, bit to no effect ! I, however am able to read articles from the Financial Times, the New York Times and the WashingtonPost. So, I suppose the issue exists only for The Athletic's Paywall. Thank You for your effort !

Same issue right now for me. Using Firefox 1.75 on this link, does not work.

Looks like that article is behind a hard paywall?
All articles might be behind a hard paywall now.

Is it possible to get around hard paywalls?

All good things must come to an end. Thanks for making it work before.

@iamadamdev -- any plan for a workaround? If you did it once, I'm sure you can do it again ;)

Install the apk and you can read for free. Then clear cache after number of free articles have been reached.
