[IRTalk] Piracy site for academic journals playing game of domain-name Whac-A-Mole | Ars Technica

[Hilton Gibson]

Because of the lawsuit, which Sci-Hub founder Alexandra Elbakyan has
refused to participate in, she's been engaged in a game of domain-name
Whac-A-Mole in response to Elsevier winning court orders demanding the
shuttering of the popular site's domain name. The site allows anybody, not
just academics, to access tens of millions of scholastic research articles
for free.
