Subscribers can share the link as a gift, so readers can see the original, not the proxied version.

I cannot trust that a gift link does not tie to my IRL identity I subscribe under. I can trust that archive links do not. The NY Times gets my money either way. It's an opsec concern. Trust no one.

If someone wants to post gift links in every thread, just let me know who to pay to enable that, I am happy to.
