Flagged because of paywall.


You should use "web" link under the article. The traffic coming from the search is not pay-walled.


They're closing that loophole:

Really? It didn't work for me, even switched to a different browser and to private mode. The flag stays.


I understand that the WSJ links have been increasingly problematic. Using the "web" link has been hit-or-miss for me as well, and as others have noted, it sounds like WSJ is going to close this workaround entirely.

That said, in the future, it would be useful to include a note that you tried the "web" link in your initial comment. Often "paywalled" comments are due to people not being aware of a workaround. It's useful to readers and those trying to help that you've tried the workaround and that it's failed. Thanks!


Okay, I will take this in consideration. Thanks!
