Are you applying to work for petulant teenagers?
except Sci-hub hasn’t been adding new papers since 2020. Anna’s Archive is a better bet, because they aggregate both sci-hub and libgen, among others. They also make torrents available for data hoarders. Their torrents total over 600 TB at this point, but include books in addition to articles.

This guy did it back in the 80s:

Yeah, but they were testing the waters with this one. The hydra’s going to grow another head eventually. It’ll be interesting to see how/if the media integrity API gets leveraged in the Android Chrome browser. They’re eventually going to attack this problem from a slightly different angle.
Read the check, it’s not an auto-gratuity. The gratuity is still expected. This is a service charge. A service charge that is likely not listed on the menu. It’s bullshit. Raise the price of the food and don’t hide costs that you are charging the customer.
Because the price on the menu then appears lower than what the customer actually pays. It’s completely misleading.
True. But it still amounts to them refusing to sell his audio. If you want to be pedantic, Amazon doesn’t sell ebooks or audiobooks at all. They sell licenses to access the content. You can argue that Doctorow should be saying that he refuses to market his content in accordance with their policies. But I’m in favor of him framing it this way. It underscores who the real shitheels are here.
They’ve moved on to specific platforms, not open standards. Ultimately, that’s not a good thing. Like when Twitter effectively replaced RSS for a lot of use cases.
