Summary:
"Sci-Hub, which is regularly referred to as the 'Pirate Bay of science,' faces another setback in a US federal court. After the site's operator failed to respond, the American Chemical Society now requests a default judgment of $4.8 million for alleged copyright infringement. In addition, the publisher wants a broad injunction which would require search engines and ISPs to block the site."
