Well, I found it.
It doesn’t exist, but they provide a useful set of alternative reasons for its non-existence

You can simply use https://github.com/iamadamdev/bypass-paywalls-chrome on any chrome-type browser (or Kiwi browser on Android) to read the Financial Times, the Economist and many other sources.
An alternative that sometimes works is to save the article in Instapaper and read it through there.
I see you have it, but archive.ph works for most paywalls

“View Page Source” will get you the raw markup with the text in it. The FT obligingly puts the article text quite near the top of the page, rather then after several thousand lines of junk.
Environmentalism – Government backing would lead to new and more sustainable content, creating thousands of pink jobs.
I cancelled the Saturday FT years ago. The deep reason was that it had become increasingly dull; the immediate reason was that the standard of the Arts section had fallen off a cliff. (Had someone’s niece been put in charge? God knows.)
Recently I stumbled across the fact that I can read it online through the good offices of my university library. If anything it’s even duller. Similarly I cancelled my sub to the Economist decades ago – the advance of dullness was unbearable.
Is there an explanation apart from the triumph of monochrome leftism? It’s odd: a million years ago the Observer was a leftie rag and yet was still worth reading.
There has been a leftward drift of almost all publications over the last three decades. I cancelled my subscription to the Economist as it got more and more preachy. Even avowed conservative publications like National Review drifted after Bill Buckley died. Supposedly neutral publications like Scientific American went woke. And they used to have such interesting articles, like how to build a home linear accelerator or cyclotron.
Yes, my subs to both Private Eye and Scientific American have gone (after 40+ years for both). And I haven’t read New Scientist (except for the occasional free copy for decades). SciAm is the worst loss, when I think how great it used to be in the days of Martin Gardner.

When it was owned by Tiny Rowland?
Times went Blairite: stopped buying. Telegraph went Cameron-Blairite: stopped buying
