It should be obvious to anyone who reached the site. They have listed popular books on the front page.
And the website itself isn't indexed if you don't explicitly search the name.
- JustSomeNobody 6y ago>It should be obvious to anyone who reached the site. They have listed popular books on the front page. Not true for me. The front page had 3 links (Books, Articles, Sign up). I had to click Books before I could see content and _then_ it was obvious. > And the website itself isn't indexed if you don't explicitly search the name. Most people aren't going to know what that even means.
- aidenn0 6y agoMy local public library also has popular books listed. I didn't explicitly search the name, I got to it from a link on github, which I got to from a news aggregator. None of these links mentioned anything about piracy.
- michaelmrose 6y agoMentioning piracy on the front page would be legally disadvantageous as piracy is illegal. Drug dealers also don't have signage, price lists, and hours except for that one guy they busted in the south with a drive up window in his mobile home.
- aidenn0 6y agoI guess I remember a time when bookwarez.net was the go-to site for book piracy. Simpler times I suppose.
- michaelmrose 6y agoI remember issuing query commands to bots on IRC and shared FTP sites where you were expected to collect interesting things on other sites and upload them painfully over dial up in order to achieve the proper ratio to not get kicked off.
