How to Read the News Behind Paywalls

I love reading Recruiting Brainfood and the industry discussions that Hung holds so well.

Unfortunately, in the newsletter and in Facebook discussions great shared content is often behind a paywall. Here is what you can do about it.

  1. Copy the URL and rid of its part after ?
  2. Use the operator cached: followed by the URL, for example:

cache:nationalgeographic.com/magazine/2020/09/the-robot-revolution-has-arrived-feature

Read the post uninterrupted!

If the cached copy does not come up, use Plan B.

Google for a phrase from the news piece, for example: “The robot revolution has arrived · Machines now perform all sorts of tasks…” You are likely to find the full story there.

You will not find this material by any Googling though.
