Well, I don't know when the move stuff to their archives or however they manage their systems, all I know is it's old enough that it required signing up. . . .
Oh, crap, it looks like now they want you to sign up to read the print edition even if it's today's! Ah, the erosion of privacy in this country!
all you have to give them is Some E-mail Address. it's a registration with no information required. isn't it? (i mean, lie all you want. fuck up their data. [g])
Too much unnecessary sharing of data, I don't care what it is . . . but, as you know, if I think it's important enough for me to gain access, I'll lie.

Two words: "data mining." This stuff builds on itself.
I guess it comes down to what I said (http://www.livejournal.com/users/wholenother/39087.html) about the fandom_scruples thing: "We have too much personal information floating around and too much lying already."
