This caught my eye, so I tried it. Before turning off scripting,
attempting to read an article showed a few lines which faded at the end
and were covered by a popup. After turning off scripting, the number of
lines shown was the same, and they were followed by
“We are having trouble retrieving the article content.

Also note that many NYT articles can be read by turning off scripting.
I can't imagine they don't *know* this. I think it's their way of
kindasorta being open. Some other sites are readable by using the
"reader" function in FF. But I've seen them trickle away over time.
