Also, since there are a lot of other pictures with titles in pinterest pages, the probability to match all keywords in your search is high even if the relevance of the main picture is low.
That used to be a common black hat seo technique.
What i also want is filter in Google Search Engine to remove all those junk results.
I have to now not only apply the wadsworth constant to youtube videos but also to search results.
Now in this specific case we were using a computer that had been freshly wiped, so nothing like an adblocker had been setup yet. (I use brave on my main work computer)
Maybe the writer can decide if it the article is free to use? I don’t know - but from my experience Medium is one of the more “open” platforms without any restrictions for the reader.
Strange our experiences are so different.
Medium used to be a great resource, but now I loathe seeing it and I won't even bother clicking a medium link.
So could also be workflow related maybe. Or combi of both?
Maybe share a medium with “upgrade” link that I can visit and compare end-results?

Should Google remove medium.com from search results?
My question is: if we designed the internet and web from scratch, how would we deal with paywalled pages?
It might be valuable, for example, to create a separate protocol for paywalled content (eg: ""cc:"" instead of "http://") and add road-blocks to discourage paywalled sites from using the wrong protocol. That would allow search-engines to filter search results according to the user's preference.
It would also make it easy for search engines to label such results, filter them when necessary and hopefully we could avoid so many ad pay sites.
Note: paying to writers is fine as long as it is not a clickbait
Maybe you have something(like malware) in your browser causing this.
Anyways this is off topic but there are work arounds for the site you mentioned and I believe you can even google how to do it ;)
I know how to work around, but that's not the topic I'm asking.
As for the topic your asking about. I say Google should not remove results, especially if your only issue is a paywall.
Here is some info regarding paywalls and Google.

And just for you I will give you a nice Google Operand Tip
Try this in your search:
"What you're searching for -site:medium.com"
Hope you find that answer more satisfying.
What good is a search engine if it doesn't try to point you in a direction where there's a result (even if that direction has a wall (door) that requires payment.
Well, in the ideal world they would show any matching results their crawler saw, but Google already censors a lot of legitimate results, because of local laws.
