Notes

Can disable the anti-adblock by blocking first-party scripts, in which case the page loads but many images are masked. Have not been able to fix by trying to whitelist specific parts of the first party script. Another workaround is immediately stopping the page load after reload, which must stop the page load before the problem script runs.

Saw prior issues related to their paywall, but seems like a different message/anti-adbock, and, while you can subscribe to get access, it appears they are also quite fine with you simply disabling your adblocker so I don't view it as a paywall issue. A previously suggested filter of washingtonpost.com##script:inject(abort-on-property-read.js, WpPwapi2) does not work. Thx.
