Comment on How Indian lawyers, scientists gave Sci-Hub its first legal defense teamparent

Comments

why dont they dual publish or does publishing on elsevier make you forfeit the right to publish elsewhere ? publish on elsevier and simultaneously publish on scihub also? what is the problem in that?

I don't follow this issue in detail but I think Elsevier edits the drafts so you are not free to publish it elsewhere unless you pay extra to make it open access. The other option is to publish the draft copies elsewhere before Elsevier touches it.
