The New York Times announced they have a new paywall. While the top news stories will be free to read there will be a number of different pricing tiers for accessing the articles for different devices. The New York Times is even okay with give Apple their standard 30 percent. Although here is what the loophole, if you access the New York Times via Facebook or Twitter you will actually be allowed to read for free. There is also no limitation to this. The Wall Street Journal has also done this in the past, although they did it through Google. The key to it is easy but only few people really knew the trick to accessing WSJ articles through Google without having to pay. Simple as just Googling the title of the article you want to read and by accessing through a link on Google you were able to access the article. Guess we can start calling this the Social Loophole. Have fun reading!
