Why hard paywalls is not blocked on Lemmy? (ponder.cat)

I started to notice some people posting NYT, Bloomberg or other websites with hard paywalls, that leads to people in the comments that are unable to read the article to discuess the headline without any analysis and some times spreading misinformation, which cannot be countered by the article, due to the paywall.

Which bring me to this: Why does no one thought about blocking hard paywalled articles for the sake of quality of discussion?

You can post third party source that discuess the orginal article and that way you can gurantee accessibility and almost full info.
