It’s so funny to me that we have to circumvent the site’s paywall in order to read an article about pirating.

Lol, so true.

Though anymore I archive pretty much any article I share. I have a Macrodroid script to grab the link from my clipboard and send it to archive.ph and open it in a browser.

I’m currently setting up ArchiveBox for my own use too.
