However, after years of pressure from publishers, Google is finally bricking up that doggie door. >The policy that’s changing is known as First Click Free, and it does exactly what it sounds like. Users who get directed to a paywalled publication — like, say, the Wall Street Journal — from search results can get sent directly to that paywalled content. In 2015, Google changed the minimum number of free daily views outlets had to offer from five to three, but didn’t change any other facets of the program.
