decrypt-sueddeutsche

A Chrome plugin to decrypt SZPlus articles

Build

1. Go to the Chrome extensions page
2. Enter 'Developer mode'
3. Click 'Pack extension'
4. Choose 'decrypt-szplus' folder
5. (optionally) choose a .pem file

Installation

1. Download the latest crx file from the releases.

2. Drag'n'drop the crx file into the Chrome extensions page (chrome://extensions/ or Menu > More Tools > Extensions)

3. Read SZPlus arcticles (some may not work, please don't hate me)

4. ???

5. Profit

How does it work?

I figured out that arcticle that are behind the SZPlus paywall can still be retrieved via the AMP protocol. This extension checks if the article is a SZPlus arcticle and then fetches the article content via AMP.
