what shadow library?

  Pirate websites to download books. They are right now the largest libraries that have ever existed. Anna's Archive is the largest, LibGen is the most famous one. Their roots are from Soviet times, when underground librarians distributed books out of control by the government.

    I already knew about them and appreciate some of the figures behind them, but when you lay it out like that, that's so badass.
