“zomg russian cyber criminals are using free books to fund their lavish lifestyles!!!1!1!!!1! you should go support corporate rent seeking publishers ‘creators’ by paying thousands for basic knowledge!!!11”
this shit sounds like it was written by a middle schooler making a history presentation. it’s hilarious
Reminder that sites like israel.tv are still “illegal” to visit and all US ISPs are forced to block it, even though this directly contradicts Net Neutrality.

😎 not to worry, corpo has directed your tax money towards righting this wrong. all will be well soon!
After the CEO gets back from their super yacht vacation, of course
(paid for by underpaying employees and wage theft)
good that the employees are predominantly debating who goes to which toilet ☺️ god forbid they notice the pay inadequacy.
Another Russian oligarch’s mega yacht seized!
That boat and RV look middle class at best.
It’s almost as if some desk jockey used photos from their family vacation lol.
Seems like a fairly reasonable way to live. Is that supposed to look lavish?
Let’s see the lifestyles of the CEOs for Springer, Wiley, and Elsevier for comparison.
Let’s see Paul Allen’s lifestyle.
It even has a watermark.
There’s a rainbow. Its so gay! Therefore … wrong!!!111

FBI be like:
Those fucks forcing money into their pockets from science are the absolute dregs of society. I actually respect angel investors more since maybe they made a good decision with their money (that feels gross to just type, even!). The fact that a select few companies are able to make science pay to win is absolutely sickening.
This is coming from someone that never even graduated college, let alone spending time in academia.
I’m disappointed I didn’t see a piracy parody of this before seeing this. Come on internet.
Oh no, somebody who might be Russian took a family vacation to go fishing with their loved ones!? What an orgy of indulgence! The audacity!
Since they now own the domain, can we DDOS it to rack up their expenses? Fuck them they don’t deserve money.
I… don’t condone such behavior but I also don’t hate this idea lol
Oh, no! People are enjoying their lives!
Uh, no. Can’t you read? These are not people. They are Russian cybercriminals
I don’t pay for piracy, but if I did I’d be glad I could help.
No the poor copyright owners I’m so upset
As if money actually goes to the content creators 😂
More hilarious jokes have never been told in history
Meanwhile, ai companies that are doing exactly the same are allowed to rack up billions in revenue.
“It’s American for profit corporation, not a Russian cybercriminal!”
If the DoJ replaced google.com with a similar scare screen, a message about the AI feature appearing before search results, and photos of CEO yachts, that might actually give me hope for the future.
Maybe include a screenshot of the AI Overview so there’s no ambiguity about what feature was problematic. Something like this:
More proof that AI is in the pocket of Big Geology.
“You can’t download a boat”?
Not with that attitude you can’t!
Call the 3D printers, we need a bigger benchy!
Isn’t the FBI supposed to be non-political?
Yet here they are trying to own Z-Libs
