I believe that knowledge should be free, you should have access to knowledge even if you don't have the money to afford buying it. This uses IPFS.

Doesn't Anna's Archive already include a full backup of Sci-Hub and distribute it via Torrent and IPFS in addition to their website and the providers and mirrors they usually use for uploading?

Scihub database stops in 2021. Big win for corporate publishers and wealthy scientists; they've had an edge since then. It's super important to have access to up to date resources. The database here seems to fill the gap - Merry Christmas to me!!

Anna's Archive allows new uploads though. From their website:

We have the full Sci-Hub collection, as well as new papers.

Wrong. Annas Archive doesn't Accept Uploads directly themselves (at least <10.000), and they recommend STC too.

To upload academic papers, please also (in addition to Library Genesis) upload to STC Nexus. They are the best shadow library for new papers.
