Ask HN: [meta] Is it okay to post sci-hub links? 6 points by ateesdalejr 8y ago ↗ HN There is a particular article that I found on sci-hub more recently, I was wondering if it would be okay to post here? If not that'd be entirely fine.
[–] znpy 8y ago ↗ Imho you should post the link to the original paper on the publisher's website.The fact that someone will get it via sci-hub is implicit.But now that i am writing this, i realized that paywalled content is a bummer. ..Well, dunno.
[–] IntronExon 8y ago ↗ I think in this case the only view that matters is that of the moderators, so you might want to email them and ask.Personally I think it should be required when the original is paywalled.
