Another one is close to biting the dust. Sci-Hub is out, Z-Lib got ran off like a dog and now IA is going to remove a host of books because these publishers just can’t stop being money-hungry bastards.
This is why I support piracy. Knowledge should be free. To go after a nonprofit organization that just wants to make digital books and other formats accessible to everyone when majority of uploads can’t be downloaded only borrowed, is just so devious and greedy.
I’m so tired of it. Laws around copyright and intellectual property need to be reformed. I feel so helpless :c

From what I see, there are
45 options on annas-archive.orgUse fast(but fee charging) direct download
Use ipfs
use torrents
Go to source pages (libgen and/or zlibrary)
Slow direct download [Edited]
It sounds like you clicked the link to the source as opposed to the mirrors

Nah, in this case there was only 4. I’ve seen the others before.
Huh, it seems it depends on the existing sources, I’m not particularly sure how that works
