Was her identity well-known before the Elsevier court case, where she was named?
I thought the publicity for her efforts was made after this, in English language media anyway. Though perhaps I am misremembering the order of events.
- DominikPeters 5y agoAccording to pushshift, her name first appears in a reddit comment in December 2014: https://www.reddit.com/r/libgen/comments/2m2m1p/libgen_needs_donations_for_a_new_server/cmirjkt/ https://www.reddit.com/r/libgen/comments/2m2m1p/libgen_needs... The Sci-Hub wikipedia article first appeared in October 2015, already mentioning her name. The Elsevier complaint in NY is from June 2015: https://torrentfreak.com/images/elsevier-complaint.pdf https://torrentfreak.com/images/elsevier-complaint.pdf
