FYI: this WSJ article is behind a paywall.
Please do not mention the paywall.
why? it is extremely annoying.

is it in the guidelines or something? i can't see anything...

It's in the FAQ. It's ok to post articles that are paywalled when the paywall has a known standard workaround such as an incognito window or clicking a search link.

> known standard workaround

that is a little bit hand-wavey, but fair enough. thanks. :)

> that is a little bit hand-wavey

True, but the internet abhors a vacuum and your fellow users are typically eager to show up with details.

was posting this as informative rather than as a complaint. your post is well noted. in the future i will add a workaround to this kind of comment to be more clear.
