this shit sounds like it was written by a middle schooler making a history presentation. it’s hilarious
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.

FBI be like:
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!
As if money actually goes to the content creators 😂
More hilarious jokes have never been told in history
They… Own a tiny home? Wow. What luxary.
Oh, no! People are enjoying their lives!
That seems nice. Glad they’re getting something in return for saving me so much money.
It’s at least reassuring to know that the DoJ values the privacy of these horrible criminals enough to warrant blurring their faces. Hard to believe those assholes were spending the money on beautiful rainbows. A rainbow isn’t a tangible possession someone can just keep to themselves! The idea that some guy can just own this abstract thing is deeply offensive to me and I will not be giving any more of my hard-earned money to library genesis.
The FBI is trying to trick me into feeling guilty, too bad I was the firstborn of a single mother and this shit does not work on me anymore

No the poor copyright owners I’m so upset
That’s horrible! I can’t believe how these criminals are wasting the money that should rightfully be getting used for cheese pizza and hot dog parties!
They should show some pictures of the real leeches.
“You can’t download a boat”?
Not with that attitude you can’t!
I don’t pay for piracy, but if I did I’d be glad I could help.
Exactly. Support those who create it. Not publishers or ebook lending companies
