Profits and market caps for the publishers have also swelled. #Elsevier, for example, boasts a nearly $35 billion market cap. It has reported a nearly 39 percent profit margin for its scientific publishing arm — which dwarfs, by comparison, the margins of tech titans such as Apple, Google, and Amazon.

Many students like Elbakyan simply email studies’ authors, or tweet the article’s information with the hashtag #ICanHazPDF hoping someone will send them a copy if they’re blocked by a paywall. But these methods, like scouring Arxiv, tend to be hit-or-miss. So when Elbakyan found herself facing paywall after paywall, she began to wonder why she shouldn’t just jump them.

Corrections to The Verge article about Sci-Hub: part 1

It took quite a time to proof-read that very long The Verge article about Sci-Hub, Open Access and about me as a Sci-Hub founder. Contrary to some opinions, the piece is not at all comprehensive and is omitting many important Sci-Hub ideas. The article is a result of a long Skype interview in Russian language back in December 2017. There are quite a bunch of mistakes and misrepresentations that I feel neccessary to adress. Since the article is long, I will split the corrections in three parts.
