And yet AI and LLM companies operate with impunity. And likely use my work.
ok, i didn’t realize that, but this really puts lot of “piracy” arguments into perspective. because, unlike most “pirates”, these fuckers will be making billions using that stolen content
Where do I send the beer? Whoever you are, you are the backbone of what makes pirating great
Never before in history has ANY institution done more to enable open and free access to ALL books for ANY person.
BOOKS FOR THE PEOPLE!
OPEN INFORMATION = FREEDOM
It’s so much more important for the system to violently control scientific research than any tv shows, movies, etc.
One thing I think Z-Library really did right is making an onion site and their own apps to find the site (I presume these have some tor ability built in as well I might be wrong though) .
I’d like to see more sites doing the same kind of thing.
Are there onion/i2p versions of pirate sites? I think we are reaching this point.
yes, in the sidebox on wiki…
Never gonna accept that I2P and Freenet and Tor-as-darknet (and whatever else) get so little attention. We managed to get Lemmy to be a thing but most of us just kinda hope clearnet sites on corporate systems and networks stay up instead of going for alternative networks that may be harder to control? Bleh.
I hope that someday we’ll reach a point where I2P becomes popular enough that normies use it. Once torrents, IPFS, emule and other technologies are made to work on I2P, I doubt there’ll be a way to put that genie back into the box.
