The article claims: "There is no legal nor illegal alternative to it as of today."
That is absolutely not true. Libgen and Scihub have
been with us for years, massively eclipse library.nu on content, and do not seem to be going anywhere anytime soon. Moreover a cursory look over their operational TTPs definitely shows competence and familiarity with best practices (unlike library.nu) which I guess explains why they're still going strong.
- userbinator 8y ago"Today" as in 2014, possibly Libgen/Scihub were not yet as well known nor large at the time. AvaxHome is another lesser-known Russian one, but I suspect all the material eventually ends up in Libgen.
- unixhero 8y agoDoes AvaxHome still operate? Noice! I helped me immensely during my days in academia.
