Some extra context / clarification from the thread re Vercel: they did warn him starting two weeks ago. They’ve stated he has a line open with customer support to get his other projects restored but that hasn’t happened yet.

I think that Vercel wants to drop them as a customer entirely. Vercel could've suspended the services related to 12ft.io, but Vercel chose to nuke their account from orbit. I'm unsure why Vercel suspended their domains tho. That's just asking for trouble with ICANN.
Out of curiosity, how is it an issue with ICANN? I know they can complain to them, but what category will this fall under?
Depends on whether Vercel refuses to give them the domain transfer code.
Time for 13ft.io
Superb
It's just a glorified web scraper, I didn't know it was this popular. You could build a barebones scraper and output in less than 10 lines with curl in PHP. And 12ftio used to inject its own code into the output, it's funny how people were Ozzy with that.
Everyone who ever does web scraping knew serving it on his own public domain was going to be a problem.
Boy, people are lazy.
Please paste the 10 lines here

Bypass Paywalls extension for Firefox.
Works better and for more sites in my experience.
How do I install it on Firefox android, though?
My phone won't open xpi files and the only solutions I've been able to find is either create a html file in the same folder, which I don't know how to do on android, or download and install an extension which is ALSO only available as an xpi 🤦
Well I use Fennec for Android from F-Droid, which has the option of using custom collections for addons.
I don't think it's possible yet on "normal" Firefox other than Nightly.
