It’s a dark pattern (no pun intended) and I try to avoid sites that do this. If I still want to read the article I press the “Reader” button in Firefox that shows a text-only view of the article.
It scrolls down and then doesn’t want you to read anymore until you log in. Oh well.
You can just click “Continue” to make the dialog go away and continue reading the article.

It pisses me off in general, but when the “Continue”/dismiss thing isn’t even working, it’s ragequit time.
