My comment wont show up here. But yes dear god yes.
Nah, because most paywalls I've experienced are sidestepped by some combination of:

- disabling JavaScript for the page

- opening in an incognito window

- saving the article to a read it later service like Instapaper

(The fact that most paywalls are implemented strangely is a whole other topic.)
