Also, donate your time to review papers, an absolutely critical part of “peer reviewed journals”, for the people charging you both.

You might have to switch your DNS to one that doesn’t block based on copyright
(e.g. Cloudflare: 1.1.1.1)
Actually i think the effort they are making is cool. It goes well beyond piracy and I think is a good idea esp in face of the world rn.

We don’t pay for shit. Universities and taxpayers do.
It will be interesting to see what cutting university funding does to publishers who may realize that half their “customers” can’t afford their services and have to turn to (quote/unquote) piracy. On the one hand I’m optimistic of a price adjustment. On the otherhand, a nagging suspicion that nothing good can come from the sudden lack of access to research creeps upon me.18107@aussie.zone 4 weeks ago

I refuse to pay to view papers. Knowledge should be free to anyone who wants it.

If research is funded by tax dollars, then it should absolutely be free for everyone to have access to.
I’m not sure how I feel about private research being required to be free to all (does it disencentivize research to let everyone learn from what you paid to learn?). Either way, if the tax payer pays for something, they deserve free access to learn from it.

private research can go ahead and charge to be viewed, and enjoy no one else giving a flying fuck about their presumably heavily biased research.

France have made this law, I think. More countries should follow their example
