| schestowitz | The "access" JStore is granting the public is a authoritarian joke. They only let you have three articles every two weeks. Personal details are required and not all of the journals and articles are available. That is not a practical research tool for the public. | Jan 19 00:32 |

| schestowitz | It wold be good for the public to cooperate and publish articles the way RECAP did for US law, but the articles are probably watermarked so that people who share can be identified and punished. | Jan 19 00:32 |

| schestowitz | I'm waiting for a public library in some brave country to decide that the copyright farce has gone on long enough. Keeping science journals under lock and key is a crime against humanity. | Jan 19 00:32 |

| schestowitz | "Oh wow, the prosecution was arbitrary because other people routinely download the way Swartz did. Shame." | Jan 19 00:32 |
| schestowitz | All that material should have government-backed (i.e. taxpayers) body that deals with b/w and distribution free of charge., It's in the public's interest after all. Info privatisers can go to hell for all I care... they profit by 'stealing' what's public. | Jan 19 00:33 |
