There are a lot of academic papers I want to read, either to advance my own knowledge or because I am doing a vanity search and want to see where I made some mistakes, or how I can improve things.
Without sci-hub I would not be able to get access to a lot of them. A good example being this one https://sci-hub.ru/10.1109/TASE49443.2020.00032 https://sci-hub.ru/10.1109/TASE49443.2020.00032 which I could had no other option than pay an exorbitant amount of money to access https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/9405312 https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/9405312
I don't mind actually paying for things, but the prices they charge are insane. Especially for something were I there only thing I can see is a small footnote that just happens to make what I am interested in pop to the top of search results.
