Surveillance Kills Freedom by Killing Experimentation
As a librarian at a large university library I feel this.<p>I&#x27;m uncomfortable poking too much around in scihub. Even though it&#x27;s not something a national security agency would care about (I hope). Could any connection between papers from scihub and myself, be a huge issue both with my career and potentially for my institutions position when negotiating licenses. It might be paranoid, but there are so many possible ways to be compromised, that I choose to direct attention elsewhere.<p>I find it sad that I&#x27;m afraid to inquire on one of the most important developments in scholarly dissemination in resent years. I&#x27;m a research librarian for Price&#x27;s sake.
