Now, let's find out how to read Business Insider Premium free.
1. Google cached pages
With this easy method, you can read the every Business Insider Premium article which are readily available from its Google cached pages.
This tip works for both browsers: Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome.
This is what you need to do:
Go to Business Insider Premium homepage.
Click on the article which you want to read.
For example you want to read this article, "The Trump trade: how a red wave could impact stocks, bonds, and commodities".
The article is blocked by its paywall.
Now go to the Firefox or Chrome address bar at the top of the page, and you can see this article URL.
https://www.businessinsider.com/the-trump-trade-stock-market-bonds-commodities-tariffs-fed-2024-7
Add cache: in front of the URL.
Now it should look like this:
cache:https://www.businessinsider.com/the-trump-trade-stock-market-bonds-commodities-tariffs-fed-2024-7
Press on the "Enter" key.
The URL would instantly change to Google web cached URL.
The full article "The Trump trade: how a red wave could impact stocks, bonds, and commodities" appears right below.
To read the next free Business Insider Premium article, just add cache: in front of its URL.
2. No style (disable CSS)
This method works for both Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome browsers.
You can view the full article, but the page layout is haphazard.
Mozilla Firefox Browser:
This is what you do:
Go to the homepage and click on any of the Business Insider Premium article which you want to read.
Yes, the article is totally blocked by its paywall.
Move your mouse pointer to "View" at the menu bar at the top of the page.
A menu box drops down.
Place your mouse pointer on "Page Style", then move over to "No Style" and click on it.
Instantly you can see the full article together with all the accompanied images.
As I have mentioned, the page is messy looking, but the article or story is in there.
Google Chrome Browser:
To disable Chrome CSS, install this extension called Web Developer.
At the blocked article, click on the Web Developer extension icon at the toolbar.
The icon is a purple cog wheel symbol.
A menu box pops up, click on the CSS tab, then click "Disable All Styles".
Instantly, the page changes, and you have to scroll down to read the full unblocked article.
Just like Firefox, the article is all over the place, together with oversized pictures.
3. Bypass Paywalls Clean extension
