The ChatGPT website went down for a few minutes and then I saw this update.
“As of July 3, 2023, we’ve disabled the Browse with Bing beta feature out of an abundance of caution while we fix this in order to do right by content owners. We are working to bring the beta back as quickly as possible, and appreciate your understanding!”

Isn’t returning “a URL’s full text” exactly what all web browsers do when you enter a URL and go to that website?
Even if a site has paywalls and stuff, it often still serves its full text to your web browser. Was ChatGPT just bypassing paywalls or was it serving text that wouldn’t normally be distributed to all users on a web browser?
