  Unless I’ve misunderstood your comment

    I asked OP to update the title in another comment which they did (and appreciate) but it made this comment of mine confusing 😅. The original title didn’t have any mention of which country. It just said they were adding a paywall

    The original title just said it was adding a paywall making it sound like it applied to more than 1 of the 195 (worldometers.info recognised) countries in the world.

    I’m not British but it’d be pretty alarming to hear that the BBC was adding a paywall that applied to the British if I was British

      Honestly this sucks balls for the US. One more credible news source made inaccessible.
