I don't subscribe to NYT nor have I ever signed up with them, yet the link works for me both at work (on a Windows box) and at home (on my Mac)

Because there are thousands of other news sites people can link to which are not behind paywalls and/or don't require their readers to submit personal information about themselves.

But since this is apparently a nuisance, I'll stop mentioning it.

I'm not saying it is a nuisance. I just wanted to know why you do it so I know how to respond. If it was because you didn't know why it was happening then every once in a while saying so would be helpful.

But now that I know it is just a form of protest I know how to respond when you do it.

I'm just curious why I can get on and SM can't

Other than the fact that I am cool and he isn't

I never have any problems with the NYT links from here, either.

Only the cool kids can access the NYT site

That's the link I had. Feel free to Google her name. She was an amazing marathon runner who died from cancer at 57.

Tim Heatherington, who was nominated for an Oscar this last time around for his Afghanistan documentary Restropo was killed filming events in Libya.
