singlelogin.me and all custom URL seem to be taken down by the FBI. I haven’t read anything about the new bust, but also not anything about new URLs or anything like that. Does anyone have any information?
They switched their singlelogin TLD a while ago. The new one is .re
http://bookszlibb74ugqojhzhg2a63w5i2atv5bqarulgczawnbmsb6s6qead.onion/ works great for me. Use Tor Browser.
Don’t think there’s any way to take down all “custom URL’s”. Last time I tried it the .onion link was fine.
Just tried out my custom URL and it still works for me. Site is accessible as normal. The app also works just fine as well.
The login site is down, but the Tor site should still be accessible, so all one would have to do is just go there, generate a unique URL, and then use that on their normal browser. Or better yet, just use Anna’s Archive, which isn’t prone to getting taken down like this and was specifically made to replace Zlib.
How does it survive where ZLib cant? I love that there is a live alternative, but surely it will suffer the same fate eventually.
Well for one, they don’t actually host anything on the site itself. Anna’s Archive is technically just a search engine for searching through backups of all the Libgen mirrors and Zlib. Since they made a point of scraping and backing up these shadow libraries, even if those sites themselves (and Anna’s Archive) go down, the backups will still be available. That on its own makes it a thousand times more useful to me than any single shadow library site. The backups are also hosted on IPFS and available via large torrent files, meaning anyone can download everything they have backed up and since their site’s code base is open source, anyone can fork the site and rehost everything should the need to do so ever arise.
They seem to have a very sophisticated system in place for ensuring that everything they’ve hosted will always be available no matter what. It inspires a lot of confidence, in my opinion. I personally don’t think they’ll ever go down, or if they do, a different team can pick up the slack by rehosting everything on a different site.
