How would a warning fix the problem?

"Hi, I see you've read [x-y] amount of news of new this month, we're going to cut you off at [x]"

What's the correct value of x?

If [x] is greater than or equal to the total amount of news published, then scrapers need one account.

If [x] is less than the total amount of news published, then you have now made it so legitimate subscribers cannot read all of the news.

Also, you have made things easier for scrapers, because they can determine how many accounts they need by dividing the total amount by [x].
