Dunno what Sci-Hub is, but most researchers are happy to send you a copy of their paper on request - and this is completely legal. Their email address is usually on the abstract.

I have never ever gotten a response from a researcher :(

That's too bad - I've seen posts from scientists, or people who claim to be, saying what I said.

Probably depends on if theyre still at the institution the research was done.

Why wouldn't they be? It's not like they're getting royalties from these journals...

Not owning it can get them in trouble for sharing

It depends on the publishing agreement
