description: I noted that the Times of India is making site registration mandatory. While it remains free, I find this new requirement for user accounts a disappointing friction point for accessing their digital news content.

The [Times of India](http://www.timesofindia.com/) is going to make registration mandatory for its site. It's free, but still, a pity.
