The Wall Street Journal is plugging leaks to its paywall. In addition to experimenting with closing the loophole that lets you copy and paste the headline into Google search for free access, the Journal has also plugged another crack in its wall, Instapaper.
The bookmarking tool lets you save stripped-down versions of articles in your browser or phone to read them later. It’s also been known to a few as a way to save Journal articles in their entirety. The Journal ironically, published an article last year on save-for-later apps saying that if you hit “save” while on the full article, you can save the entire text. Now, when you save Journal articles to Instapaper, though, you only get an excerpt, not the full article.
