Is there a way to stop news aggregs like HN to stop showing pay walled content

Hi, Just wondering how useful it is to have pay walled content posted on Hackernews and why there is no option to see/block it upfront? More and more content behind the pay wall is posted to HN littering the section. So who is doing it? Why? Getting on one's nerves by suggestions and then hitting the pay wall makes it not more possible to get more subscription. I don't even have the possibility to pay easily and if I see something interesting but paywalled, I look up Google for exact that information - and sometimes find something more interesting than this paywall providers offer. So what's the idea behind making the HN unusable in some terms (Disc. No offense. I just try to understand why this is done and whether the one's doing that is really not realizing, that doing so might have negative impact?)
