- athree-blogs-in-a-trenchcoat Listen, this is serious. Do not use the website called Sci-Hub! It lets people access scientific articles for free. This is dangerous. It helps the free flow of knowledge and reduces the competitive edge of all the people who worked really hard to have been born into a wealth. Like, it’s literally a website where you can type in the DOI of an article and read it, without ever having to pay the publisher who exploited the author. So, again, do not, under any circumstance, use Sci-Hub. I mean, can you imagine a world where knowledge is free and easily accessible to everyone? Even, y'know, poor people? (remote)
