@tiotasram @OddMinus1 @RustyBertrand i think 🏴‍☠️ is the way. Those publishers earn gazillions, charge everyone and gatekeep knowledge? Specially from the global south.
As a comparison, in Brazil you may get a scolarship from the federal government that doesn't allow you to work and it's about 385 usd. One article would cost about 10% of that.
the university usually grants access to those magazines, I'm only giving you an idea of what 35 dollars is worth in this corner of the world.

@ACarolaRodrigues @OddMinus1 @RustyBertrand from a reader perspective: yes, piracy of academic articles is good. I encourage it.

From an author perspective: host free copies of stuff when you can, especially if it's permitted and maybe even if not.
