gollark: Sci-Hub seems to be fine for me.
gollark: Have you considered that you may be *wrong* about this "bigger problem", or alternatively that it doesn't exist but isn't particularly actionable?
gollark: I don't know how you would do that, but while it would have political *effects* that doesn't really make it political.
gollark: You can maybe be *practically* non-political, if you just somehow avoid letting politics affect your purchasing decisions.
gollark: Hmm, okay then. As in, a big dropoff right after that happened, or just a general decline around the same time?
