As someone who whos for an ISP, I find it funny as f*** when we get copyright notices and see what show the person watched.
Like, this is the show you decided to watch and got caught.

For books it's truly elite. I am simply too poor to buy all the books I want and the library does not always have what I want, and often I would have to wait weeks or even months for it to become available thru the library.
So every couple weeks I'll go peruse B&N and just take photos of all the books I'd like to read and then I go home, download them from libgen, and then email them to my used kindle that I got for 40 bucks. Sometimes when I really like a book/author i'll buy a paper copy.
Chatgpt also rly good at recommending books btw.
Yeah exactly, I’ve read so much books over the last 2 years because of Libgen. When I have nothing to do I be reading in my phone.
