A decade old longread from Wired that also shines a light on how trivial it was to bypass mechanisms of some online services back in the day.

(I am not sure if Wired has this paywalled because I had the BPC extension installed but it opens properly with it).

It opened fine for me so I don’t think there’s a paywall.
