I finally found a blocked article about farmers in India from a cached version

I was trying to read a report on farmer protests in Punjab from a UK news site, but it was blocked in my country. I used the textise dot iitty trick to pull the raw text and saved it before it disappeared again. Has anyone else used that workaround for these regional blocks?

Honestly, that's rough. It's messed up that news about something so real and important gets hidden behind walls like that, especially when it's about people just trying to live and work. I've had to dig through cached pages myself for stuff on South American farming issues, and it always feels like you're sneaking around just to read the truth. Really feel for the farmers in Punjab, man. That whole situation is tense and it's wrong that you can't even read a straight report on it where you are.

Wait, cached pages? That actually works for news over there?

Disagree with @felix155. Sometimes walls protect people from misinformation.
