Sci-Hub always intended to be legal, and advocated for the copyright law to be repealed or changed, so that it will not prohibit the development of science.
To help Sci-Hub get legal, you can support these fight, for example by joining the local Pirate Party.

Kopimism is defined as a philosophical belief that all information ought to be freely distributed and that no monopoly on knowledge should ever persist, especially not by the means of state regulation ? by copyright laws, intellectual property regulation, or otherwise. The movement is an outflowing of the Free Culture Movement, and exists largely as an internet phenomenon and is closely related to the Swedish political party: The Pirate Party. However, the ideology has been officially recognized in Sweden as a religion, though it lacks any deities and features no theological dogmas.
Ukraine : 132 partis pour les élections du 25 octobre 2015.

Rhinos, dill and hidden threats confuse voters in Kyiv

In short but a very competitive election campaign, which will take place all over Ukraine except annexed Crimea and Russian-occupied parts of the Donbas, the parties and candidates are trying to be imaginative.
Some of the 132 parties registered by the Central Election Commission chose strange names such as Darth Vader Bloc, Internet Party of Ukraine, Pirate Party and UKROP (dill, a word Russians use as a derogatory term for Ukrainians) or Good Samaritan.
Others opted for unusual emblems and messages.
The Movement for Reforms agitators explained that the party chose a rhino as an emblem because it is a very powerful animal which never attacks first but always rebuffs attackers.
’I did drugs and Sweden should get real’: Pirate Party founder - The Local

I haven’t ’tried’ drugs. I have ’used’ drugs, and enjoyed it. That’s the whole damn point," he wrote. “The Swedish elitist debate is seriously deranged on these issues - to start getting realistic, we must first acknowledge that people are using drugs because they enjoy doing so.”
“It’s really no difference from enjoying a glass of wine or a fine cognac. Or for that matter, a cup of coffee, which is a very common drug that was once banned in Sweden as - wait for it - a ’gateway drug to heavier abuse’. Yes, you read that right.”
(...)
The Pirate Party founder believes Sweden’s approach to drugs in general is a tool of aggression for the police.
Si j’aime un verre de vin avec mon fromage, c’est pour le goût qu’il a, pas pour me faire tourner la tête. S’il existait un liquide produit naturellement, avec 100% le même goût, mais sans aucun alcool dedans, et bien je le boirais avec mon fromage pour la même raison.
Alors qu’on ne me fera pas croire qu’une personne fume un spliff ou sniffe de la coke pour autre chose que se faire tourner la tête.
Je serais très surpris que la majorité de la consommation d’alcool mondiale relève du seul plaisir esthétique : p
idem que @rastapopoulos pour ma part
Ceci dit, même si cet argument n’était pas valide (ce qui me parait déjà très contestable), ça change pas le reste : )

Germany: Pirate Party makes overtures to the far right
By Martin Kreickenbaum
3 April 2013
In the past few weeks, the far-right Pro NRW has conducted racist protests outside refugee camps in North Rhine-Westphalia as part of a campaign for a “people’s initiative against the abuse of asylum.” Their demands for a criminal offence of “asylum fraud” have received support from members of the Pirate Party.
#Pirate_Party Protests Against Megaupload Shutdown
►http://thenextweb.com/eu/2012/01/24/megaupload-shutdown-the-catalan-pirate-party-launches-a-civil-action-aga
The Pirate Party’s Catalan branch (PP-Cat) is launching a collective civil action in Spain against the FBI with regard to #Megaupload shutdown, the organization announced yesterday.
The action already branched out on Twitter with the hashtag #megacomplaint. (...)
when Megaupload was shut down, millions of Spanish users potentially lost access to legit personal files they had uploaded. According to the Pirate Party, those may deserve legal recourse against the loss they sustained, as the FBI may have violated Articles 197 and 198 of the Spanish Penal Code by misappropriating #personal #data.
Mieux que le Pirate Party, le Anti Powerpoint Party.
