Last week, a feature article in Science analyzed 28 million download
requests over 6 months from Sci-Hub, a popular repository of pirated
scientific literature. The data showed widespread use of Sci-Hub around the
world, in countries rich and poor, and in all fields of science. The story
also included an online survey of attitudes toward Sci-Hub, which generated
nearly 11,000 responses before it was closed on 5 May.
