Yeah lol the URL doesn't match the page title which doesn't match whatever
wosonhj.comis. According to their DNS, some Chinese organization.It links to a fake version of libgen populated with ads
(And sadly instead of re-hosting all 550+ TB of libgen for downloads they force the downloads through libgen's servers while throwing ads on top of their fake UI)
It links to a fake version of sci hub populated with ads
(Most of these all flowing into mobang.top, another throwaway url with Chinese DNS)
I'm sure it's a helpful site, but I'd recommend people accessing it:
Realistically you should follow steps 1-5 for most online services, but here we are
It used to be at that URL, and that URL redirects to it. They recently updated it and I am unsure where they are taking it.
It makes sense to use throwaway urls, libgen does it all the time, I just wanted to inform people of what I found when looking at the site. Definitely not saying don't use it, just be cautious
(Just contexualising.) :)
