According to their credits page, Harmless Monsters is going to stop uploading to Mangadex. They're going to continue all of their series, but they're going to post them somewhere else to avoid "potential legal issues."
Is that the future of scanlation? We've gotten sort of spoiled, since the primary sites - Mangadex and before that (the original) Batoto got left alone. Is it going to become whack-a-mole now, like anime? Instead of being able to depend on one site, we'll have to move to a new one every few years?
