This doesn't work nearly as well as it did in the past. I don't know the story behind 12ft, but they seem to be complying with any site which has requested it to not work on their articles.
Well there's always the good old Reader View button in Firefox.
Some websites seem to hardly circumvent reader view, but to the point where it can be inconvenient. Reader Mode only works with the NY Times if I rapidly click on the "Toggle reader view" button whilst it's loading, otherwise it'll cut off. But it still does work brilliantly most of the time and gets the job done.
Well there's always the option to mash the Escape key/Stop button before the pop-up can show. It works on The Washington Post at least.
