Are we supposed to share articles behind paywalls on HN?

Edit: I wasn't aware of the entry in HN's FAQ related to paywalls. See comments below.

From the FAQ:

> It's ok to post stories from sites with paywalls that have workarounds.

> In comments, it's ok to ask how to read an article and to help other users do so. But please don't post complaints about paywalls. Those are off topic.

For Medium, this means just blocking or deleting the cookie.

I know how to workaround the paywall by blocking or deleting the cookie :-) But I wasn't aware of this entry in HN's FAQ. I disagree, but if this is the rule on HN, then I'll follow it. Thanks for your reply.
