But blocking Anna's Archive, Libgen, OceanofPDF, Z-Library, and the Internet Archive's Open Library is such a terrible way to express that you hate press.
Science and academics should be freely pressed, without the authoritarianism of copyright. If my yuri koma was discussing prion synthesis, one shouldn’t deter me for referencing the journal.
Yes. It is a big problem for Europe. I don't expect that it will be fixed in the foreseeable future. In fact, it is being made worse in many ways.
You may reference and quote journal articles. That's something I expect will stay allowed.
So you're saying not even Norway will free press😭
Norway killed a walrus bc it was sinking boats by sitting on them :(
😭 the walrus did nothing wrong😭
down with capitalism!✊🏿🦭
