      For those who don't know, this video is about sci-hub, the fast, easy, and comprehensive resource for accessing scientific research that I would never recommend because it's piracy. Even though I've heard that there is no faster way to get a scientific paperhttps://twitter.com/ChelseaParlett/status/1338981754787401729 …

      I would never choose to use it because it's far faster than my institutional access. No, I would never do that.

      I, too, would never use this brilliant, free service that is literally the best way to access scientific research

          That would be wrong. And we would never want to do wrong. Especially if it impacted upon the bottom lines of mega-corporations who make it prohibitively expensive to publish or read research and who rely on goodwill and not dollars for peer review.

          I most definitely do not have this code in a bookmarklet javascript:window.location='http://sci-hub.se/'+location.href ;

          As a journalist who is often on deadlines and needs a paper immediately and can’t afford to pay for the paywalls or track down someone with institutional access just to do my job for the public good, I wouldn’t dream of using such a valuable resource.
