Ask HN: Comments requesting paywall bypass links
I frequently see comments from people explicitly or implicitly asking for links to bypass the paywall on submitted articles. I'm confused by this, since it takes about the same amount of effort to generate your own paywall bypassing link as it does to post a comment asking for someone else to do it. Going further and posting this link for others to use does add a step, but doesn't seem like a lot to ask.
What's happening here?
Do these posters think some special magic is required? Are they not aware that creating such a link just involves going to the top level domain of one of the services (eg, http://archive.is) and pasting the URL into a form?
Are they opposed to the idea of creating such a link themselves, either due to moral qualms or legal fears, but willing a follow a link that some else has created?
Are they using a handheld device that makes it so hard to copy a URL and open a new page that they don't know how to start, whereas they know how to write a comment?
Or are they just so entitled that they think someone else should provide for them at all times, and don't want to demean themselves helping others?
Can anyone who has posted such requests tell me what they were thinking? Can others who post bypass links tell me other explanations? General discussion on what the HN etiquette on paywall bypass links should be is welcomed as well.

Or save a bookmark in your browser and edit its destination to be this Javascript bookmarklet to let you load the archive.is version of any URL you're currently on without even needing to remember the domain or type anything:
javascript:void(location.href='https://archive.is/?run=1&url='+encodeURIComponent(location....)
Or version for IA's Wayback Machine instead:
javascript:void(window.open('https://web.archive.org/web/*/'+location.href))
Or this more complicated version of the Wayback Machine one, which if you click while on an empty tab will instead give you an alert with a text field in which to type or paste whatever URL you want to look up:
javascript:(function()%7Bif(location.href.indexOf('http')!=0)%7Binput=prompt('URL:','http://');if(input!=null)%7Blocation.href='http://web.archiv...

What will humans do if technology solves everything?
I usually go to https://archive.is/, copy in the link I want to archive, submit, wait a minute, and then you receive the link to the archived article.

Building an AI Coach to Tame My Monkey Mind
Example: if you use therapy services provided by an employer’s benefits package, they could subpoena your therapist for juicy mental health details that they can then use to slander you in court, HIPPA be damned. Example from my own employer doing this: https://archive.is/
AI therapists have no such patient confidentiality regulations, so it would be way easier to do that.
Imagine OpenAI wants to get rid of a problem employee who happens to use a OpenAI-powered therapist. No reason why they wouldn’t.
