The Web Monetisation protocol solved this by doing a prorata based on how long you spent on the page.

What if I save the page locally on my machine? Or archive it?

  • What if my phone rings and I forget to close the page? Or leave it open to read it later?

    Plus as one of the parent comments said, I am not paying before I get an idea what I'm paying for.

      The logic was, you aren't paying to a website. You're paying to a broker that distributes how much you've paid to all websites you've visited that have opted in, prorated based on how much time you spent on them.
