    Just make sure you avoid getting in trouble by using the facebook strategy of downloading so much that they shrug their shoulders instead of prosecuting

      Only works if you have a billion dollars though. If you do it on a big scale, they’re just going to Aaron Swartz you.

    Annas archive is also good. If it still exists, I haven’t checked in a while and I recall them having some issues

    I’ve published about 30 scientific papers, and have worked closely with publishers, both traditional and highly digitized. Scientific findings are IP, and should be protected; and costs for the publishers should be reimbursed through paid subscription.

    medical and stem journals are actually not because the scientist or or university is paywalling them, but the publishing companies are. many articles are free on places like research gates but not all, yea can pirate them, if your still in a university as a student you get full access to all these journals for free anyways.
