"Police are warning students and universities not to access Sci-Hub, an "illegal website" that allows users to download scientific research papers normally locked behind expensive subscriptions."Very bad indeed. That name again: Sci-Hub. Remember it so you can avoid it. Ahem.

So, just to remind you: that's Sci-Hub:https://sci-hub.st/It's "illegal", don't use it to search for scientific information ;-)

@fribbledom truly horrifying crimes would be accessing library genesis, which not only has scientific information but also university-level textbooks (gasp) searchable by author, title, edition, IBSN etc. and available from several mirrors!I just don't know how Pearson survives really, they're basically *giving* the eBooks away

@fribbledom "If you're tricked into revealing your log-in credentials, whether it's through the use of fake emails or malware, we know that Sci-Hub will then use those details to compromise your university's computer network in order to steal research papers."So, you are telling me, I don't have to upload the papers myself anymore? Nice feature!

@Zezin :fedora: :tp: Apples and oranges. Stealing a car means someone no longer has his car. Reading scientific knowledge doesn't take anything away from the researcher(s) who wrote it, but does add to the general level of knowledge.

@fribbledomWe should never forget that A. Elbakyan's life became *very* complicated because she created this tool.I am thankful to her, but very angry at colleagues of mine who use her tool but keep publishing their works at publishing houses that use expensive paywalls and sued (or could have sued) A. Elbakyan for breaking them.F*** knowledge economy!https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexandra_Elbakyan

@r_a @fribbledom >In 2017, a species of parasitoid wasps discovered by Russian and Mexican entomologists was named after Elbakyan (Idiogramma elbakyanae). Elbakyan was offended by this, writing, "If you analyse the situation with scientific publications, the real parasites are scientific publishers, and Sci-Hub, on the contrary, fights for equal access to scientific information." Following this event, and in the context of her long-running tense relations with the liberal, pro-Western wing of the Russian scientific community, she blocked access to Sci-Hub for users from the Russian Federation.SCIENTIST DRAMA

@kevin @fribbledom Better to not assume that they're not being compensated, me thinks. ☝️Instead, I think it's best to contact them directly* and ask* nicely. Or offer to pay them directly. I bet it would please them.As far as i know, studies are either funded by authors/researchers themselves (rare) or by an entity/institution (common). It's reasonable to think that whoever funded it would own* the work and may want to get some of their investment back. 🤷♀️

@fribbledom It's only normal that private companies like Elsevier earn one billion of dollar a year by putting a paywall over research that has been funded by taxpayer money. Also universities cannot afford not to get a subscription to these journals, so it's free money for these companies.In summary, Elsevier good, and Sci-Hub bad.

@fribbledom @claudius Also if you ever need to if a URL leads to Sci-Hub just check the "official website" property of Q21980377 on wikidata for a nice list. If your network blocks access to Sci-Hub make sure to show the list to your admin. It's likely they missed some of the domains on their block list. https://m.wikidata.org/wiki/Q21980377
