scmp.com / South China Morning Post: Cloudflare Block

[SergeGardien]

Hi, if I have the anti-paywall addon enabled in Firefox I cannot open any page on scmp.com as I get blocked by Cloudfare.

As an example, if I try open this link: https://www.scmp.com/business/markets/article/3075847/overseas-investors-dump-chinese-stocks-worth-us14-billion-fastest
I get this:

How can I solve it?

I wonder if it's some kind of conflict between this addon and something else, since I just tried that page in Firefox and Chrome and it worked. I don't even see that site in the list in the first place, so it's odd how this addon could be involved at all. Or maybe it's just some kind of weird regional thing where it depends where you are.

[SergeGardien]

Thanks for the reply.
scmp.com is in the list at https://github.com/nextgens/anti-paywall.
I agree it could be a conflict between this addon and something else but this addon is definitely part of the problem given that the website works soon as I disable it.
For the regional filtering could also be possible but I cannot tell for sure, I would need to use a VPN to test that.

I guess I'm missing it, but where is the site in the list in the extension's Options? S or T section would be the only possibilities, I think.

[SergeGardien]

Interesting!
How do you see the extension's options?
I'm under Firefox and if I go in Tools -> Add-ons -> Click on the 3 dots next to the Addon name, I don't see the list of websites.
Am I missing something?

[rpodric]

Via the addon's icon on the toolbar. Click Options in it.

Apologies. I got my githubs mixed up. I thought you were using this, which you should be, since anti-paywall is long since abandoned.

No Worries.
Yes, I'm using that one already.
Then I'll simply keep anti-paywall disabled.

Thanks
