How to Read Blocked Articles Using Google Cache
person Patrick Bushe · calendar_today April 10, 2026
Google maintains a text-only, un-paywalled cache of almost the entire internet. But manually accessing it by rewriting the URL is tedious. To read blocked articles using Google Cache efficiently, simply install the Bypass Paywalls extension. If the extension realizes it cannot defeat the site's code natively, it immediately triggers an invisible redirect to Google's cached server. It fetches the text-only payload and serves it to your screen, totally bypassing the publisher.
