Have you ever been looking at a website and suddenly run into something like this?<\/p>\n

Reading Quota 1<\/p><\/div>\n

Some websites like to set up a quota so you can only view their webpages a certain number of times before you have to sign up for an account or have to pay them a fee.<\/p>\n

Most of the time, there’s a real easy way around this.<\/p>\n

Just look at the URL of the blocked page in the top of your web browser. In the example above it was….<\/p>\n

http:\/\/www.ft.com\/cms\/s\/9b8e66a6-1a3c-11df-b4ee-00144feab49a,Authorised=false.html?_i_location=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ft.com%2Fcms%2Fs%2F0%2F9b8e66a6-1a3c-11df-b4ee-00144feab49a.html%3Fftcamp%3Drss%26nclick_check%3D1&_i_referer<\/p>\n

Yuck. Looks pretty complex, right? Don’t worry. All we need to do it look for the word FALSE in the first part of that mess.<\/p>\n

Once you find it, just change the word false<\/strong> to true<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

http:\/\/www.ft.com\/cms\/s\/9b8e66a6-1a3c-11df-b4ee-00144feab49a,Authorised=true<\/strong>.html?_i_location=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ft.com%2Fcms%2Fs%2F0%2F9b8e66a6-1a3c-11df-b4ee-00144feab49a.html%3Fftcamp%3Drss%26nclick_check%3D1&_i_referer<\/p>\n

Now press ENTER in your web browser!<\/p>\n

Reading Quota 2<\/p><\/div>\n

You can also just type the headline of the blocked article into GOOGLE<\/a> and most of the time they’ll give you a direct link to the same article.<\/p>\n

I wonder how much these companies spent on some cyber<\/em> consulting group for this high tech security setup?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
