Also, I support sci-hub through crypto. That's pretty much my only use case for it, but it is one. Wish we lived in a world where we didn't have to bypass regulations to get free access to journals... but cryptocurrency is a solution for now.

As some flavor of libertarian, I understand the concept of the NAP (non-aggression principle) and make the distinction between morality and legality and would like to have a different definition of "crime". That said, as we operate under a legal system that is forced on us, we do have to make references to the legislation that exists.
