Noticing an increase in websites adding a data paywall i.e. you can either choose to be a subscriber & pay money, or you can choose to pay in data by accepting tracking & "personalised advertisements". Presumably because they aren't paid enough for un-personalised adverts.
Would handy if those posting links would flag both types of paywall.
