Also, it removes the weight of having to display Guardian’s ads as well.

The up-side to this may be that the site get’s automatic updates. Would it have been better if those that use the plug-in get a share/revenue everytime they drive their traffic over to The Guardian? Just a thought :)

There’s a huge difference between a pay-wall and a adding advertising to via plug-ins on third party sites.

Does Guardian even know the implications of that?
