Very simple and easy to use. Activate the extension (through GitHub for FF) and you're away.

I did notice some quirks from some sites where the Cookie Law popup just doesn't go away. But I can live it with.

Works for the majority of paywalls. Certain paywalls still give me issues, such as The New York Times, but overall I can't complain.

It was originally a Firefox browser extension, but had to be moved to Github and installed manually after DMCA claims.

Add-ons to make Firefox more fantastic

Useful browser extensions I usually have installed. Note that it is possible to install addons without having them all enabled at all times so you can turn off whatever you are not using at the moment. This is more efficient and secure.
