They got us by the balls

Context (for those who might not be in academia): many academic publishing companies (like Elsevier) charge exorbitant prices for researchers to get their papers published as open access. Meanwhile, none of these researchers actually get anything in return for it (except for major street cred if their papers get highly cited)
Obligatory sci-hub plug. When I went to uni, our teachers literally told us, that the school doesn't have the money to pay for access to everything, so here's a site you can use
Sci-hub needs support though, it does not have all of the most recent papers, which are often the ones we're looking for :(
