For paywalled sites that let users read X free articles, the easiest solution for me was to block all cookies from the site, i.e. block all cookies from [*.]medium.com. Medium will always think that "You have 2 free member-only stories left this month". This has worked for nytimes and medium so far.

It always baffles me when people claim "Paki" is an ethnic slur when used for Pakistani citizens. Do you consider "Brit" for a British citizen to be an ethnic slur as well?

>they were able to resolve it by contacting google.

Do they happen to be government-funded, or represent a health company as stated above? To be fair, I didn't follow up the rejection, I just assumed the rule would be set in stone and they wouldn't budge. The app was free, no ads or any method to profit from covid so I was pretty shocked.

Google have flat out banned any apps that have anything to do with combating COVID-19 if they aren't either funded by their government or are a registered health company. I tried releasing a symptom tracker app before Zoe released theirs and it was rejected for this reason.
