Foiled! I refused to sign up for The Courant just to be able to read articles.
I don't remember if I installed an add-on or plugin to do this or not, but I can right-click the link in firefox and it gives me the option to search Google for the link, which works.There's actually a way around this. If the Courant (or any other Paywall site) thinks you came from Google they let you go. So you basically just need a bookmark which fakes it. Put this link into a bookmark and when you hit a paywall, click it:
javascript:location.href='https://www.google.com/webhp?#q=' + encodeURIComponent(location.href) + '&btnI=I'
