What's with the login wall to read the article? Does every random site need my personal information now?

The Information isn't that random (as the name implies).

It's an attempt to create a high-value, investigative tech magazine. The paywall is rather strict and it seems to be aimed at the investor class, so I'm not entirely sure how well it's going because I'm not a subscriber, but I believe I've seen a few important stories that originated with them.

It may be they're a quality site but I've never heard of them before. Not about to hand over personal contact information to an unknown party.

If it were the New York Times or some site I've heard of however, I'd happily login.
