These paywall bypassers are revealing a problem and offering a temporary solution. However this situation wherein scientists are both providers and consumers of editors, and forced to go to pirate websites in order to work is not sustainable. I feel like a permanent solution needs to be found. I'm not a scientist myself, and would be happy to hear anyone else's opinion, but alternatives like peercommunityin.org look more promising. All in all, this ban can be easily be circumvented (it's just a DNS block), so I'm not really sure it will help editors. It may cause an opposite effect, helping people to move to different solutions. But maybe I'm over optimistic.
