How does this, (or 12ft.io for that matter) actually work? Client-side trickery? Magic cookies? Something like adblock?

EDIT: Apparently it just blocks JS and disguises itself as an SE crawler. This still doesn’t work on sites like Bloomberg, and if I understand correctly nothing can be done there.

I’ve never gotten even the original 12ft to work a single time. Bypass Paywalls Clean is the only thing that has worked for me incredibly consistently

I use the Bypass Paywalls Clean extension in Firefox to access Bloomberg, among others. I had it installed before it got taken down, so be careful where you get it from nowadays.
