Are there any good ethical alternatives to Google Scholar?I need to find literature on surveillance capitalism for my local socialist study circle, and it just feels wrong to have to use a Google product for this.

@aadilayub There are a lot of academic journal indices like JSTOR or ERIC, but to use them, you may have to go to a university library and use a computer there, because they're subscription-based.

@aadilayub You could try some search engine or index of Open Access publications:- https://www.base-search.net/- https://doaj.org/- http://oaister.worldcat.org/SciHub isn't a very good search engine, but still, why not trying it? And not for searching, but for accessing, sometimes unpaywall is handy.
