Poorman's Paywall Destroyer

I always use an ad-blocker, but some sites know how to get around that, and still show you a 'paywall'.
This is a simple snippet you can use as a bookmarklet, that will destroy those paywalls, or sites that stop you from using an ad-blocker.

To use this just create a bookmark, and in the url insert this :

javascript:(function(){for(var t=document.querySelectorAll("div, span"),e=0,o=t.length;e<o;e++){var i=window.getComputedStyle(t[e]);"fixed"===i.position&&parseInt(i.width)>200&&parseInt(i.height)>200&&t[e].setAttribute("style","display: none!important")}var n=document.getElementsByTagName("body")[0];n.setAttribute("style",n.getAttribute("style")+"; overflow: auto!important")})();

When you reach a site that shows the paywall, just click on the bookmark, and it should dissappear and the site should be 'usable' again!

For the unminified version, look at the file ppd.js in this repo.

FAQ

Which sites does this work on ?
I purposely don't want to maintain a list here, not to raise any awareness :)

How does this work ?
It looks for div or span elements that have position: fixed and take up more than 200x200 pixels (so it won't remove fixed headers or footers) and hides them.
After that, it adds overflow: auto to the body element, so scrolling will be enabled.

It doesn't work on _____ site ?
Great! Open an issue, and I'll try to fix it.  

I have a great idea on how to improve this!
Great! Submit a pull request, and i'll be happy to merge it
