Hello.
I just noticed in one of my Firefox profiles that Mozilla auto-disabled the “Bypass Paywalls” extension after removing it from their end, which apparently happened a while ago.
I don’t think I ever even used this extension, which is why I didn’t catch this earlier. But now that it’s banned, I definitely want it around 😉
The upstream repository also got DMCA’d. The repository of a presumably alternative (or cleaned) extension is also gone, although I found some GitHub mirrors of it (how ironic).
So, is there a maintained extension upstream I should know about?
Tangent, but why are people scared of the .ru repository? This was also an issue last time Bypass Paywalls was mentioned, and I thought it was quite strange to see in a piracy community. Are people unaware that a significant amount of the world’s piracy originates from Russia?
