   Thanks, yes that has the article. It wasn't actually behind a   
   paywall, but using one of these cache services like Cloudflare that   
   can block access from browsers without Javascript saying something   
   like "Enable Javascript and cookies to continue". I thought   
   "JS-wall" was a good term for it since the effect is like a paywal,   
   only they demand you run their JS rather than demand payment.
