Utter bullshit. I only use these services for academic publications/books (fiction I just get from the library).
Academic articles are paid for with tax money. Fuck private control over tax funded research.

Yeah it would make the jobs of resaearchers much easier do you have any idea how articles i needed for my master thesis and rhey turned out to be paywalled?
Thanfully my uni email allowed me to acess them but it didnt need to be.
Theres a reason why we call college emails the world's most expensive library card
