No doubt they'll be chucked in a supermax prison in the arse-end of nowhere for fifty years.

They'll charge them like Aaron Swartz, where each piece of material is a separate count against them. The years of sentencing and fines will be astronomical.

By limiting downloads (artificial scarcity)?

By charging for pirated works?

They charge for bandwidth, server cycles and rent.

So they don’t profit?

I find it interesting that zlib is supposed to be compensated for their servers but the authors aren't supposed to be compensated for their writings.

Personally, I'm in support of zlib / libgen / other illegalist libraries. But it is kind of funny to see where the morality lies on this.

Your argument is skewed.

Z-Library guys didn't extradite any site users who didn't pay for their servers and handed them effective life sentences.
