User Reviews
This extension works fine, until it doesn't. As noted in another review, this extension DOES throttle the number of articles you can read. Nowhere on the extension page does it tell you this, but at a certain number of articles (predetermined by the developer), you start seeing the NYT paywall again, until next month when it resets. The sales pitch for this extension is emphatic, and repeated, that it allows non-paywalled reading, and that's true, until you hit whatever number of articles the developer has determined is too many. That process, and the number, should be disclosed up front before installation, for full transparency. Sneaky.
