Bugmenot

Registering with a Web site often means making a deal with the devil. You give the site information like your name, email address, and potentially more private data such as your mailing address, phone number, and age. But what happens with that information? You may get inundated by spam, your name may be sold to mailing lists and advertisers, and possibly worse. But for many Web sites, if you don't register, you can't log in and use the site.

"How To Use BugMeNot.com

STEP 1: Make a note of the website address your are trying to access. E.g nytimes.com 

STEP 2: Visit bugmenot.com 

STEP 3: Enter the address from step 1 into the box and press the "Show Logins" button

STEP 4: You should now be presented with a username and password. Make a note of them.

STEP 5: Go back to the site you were originally trying to access in step 1 and proceed to login with the username and password you noted in the previous step.

With any luck you should be able to access your article now!
Important Notes

It's important to note that all of the username/password accounts listed on bugmenot are added by users such as yourself. If you can't find a working login for a site then you are encouraged to register with that site (using fake details of course) and then add the username/password to bugmenot for other users to use. Never enter your real login details into bugmenot- everyone else will be able to see them!

If you find bugmenot useful then please return the favour by telling everyone you know about it. Together we can take back the web."
