A step by step guide wallthrough on how to access / read a NYT paywalled article

1. Open the NYT article you want to read in incognito mode
2. Open up your devtool console ([cmd][shift][j] on chrome/mac)
3. Open up the devtools command prompt ([cmd][shift][P] on chrome/mac)
4. Type in the command disable javascript into the command prompt, but don't hit enter
5. Reload the page
6. After the content loads but before the paywall appears, enter your disable javascript command
7. If paywall persists, return to step 3. Otherwise, enjoy your free article.
8. Happy reading!
