Today we are forced to share some sad news - yesterday many of our domains were seized again. We should highlight that the majority of the seized domains were not mirrors of the Z-Library website. Instead, they were separate sub-projects, containing only books in rare languages of the world, and their blocking is perplexing. For instance, these domains included books in Tamil, Mongolian, Catalan, Urdu, Pashto, and other languages:
Over the 15 years of the project’s existence, we’ve managed to collect an impressive collection of rare texts in many uncommon languages. These domains featured many unique texts that can’t be found anywhere else, including rare books, documents, and manuscripts. All of this is a priceless heritage, contributing to the preservation and study of world cultures, and serving as important material for researchers in linguistics, anthropology, and history.
Z-Library also states in the blog post that they did not lose the files, just the domains.
I really hope they have backups.

Nothing in here is as perplexing as dumbasses behind Z-library not “hosting” their files on Usenet and Bittorrent to ensure that this can’t be blocked unless feds turn off internet globally.
Heads up, this guy is a troll picking fights for no reason. Don’t try to engage him, he only replies with deflection and insults. Check out his profile
What he said was abrasive but not entirely wrong. Tempted to say you’re the troll for looking up people’s histories as your only proof of anything.
Call me what you like. Or ignore me entirely. I’m just passing along the message
He’s obsessed with me because everything I say is true and truth makes brainlets mad.
It’s amusing that on a Piracy community, someone will go ahead and block me, you clowns are no better than companies who screech about piracy in the first place.
Maybe I should go contribute in working to get Z-library taken down because it’s a piece of shit that tries to monopolize books via DDL’s instead of making it a decentralized effort because even bypassing blocks must be monopolized…
Completely agree that this guy is a troll, but a check of his profile shows that the person who engages with them the most is you.
You’re right. I was one of the first people he talked to, on a post yesterday about the paradox of tolerance where he proclaimed that his sole reason for existence is to be an asshole to people who call themselves tolerant.
We argued back and forth for awhile, but I eventually clocked him as a troll and I really just want to see if I can get him to burn out.
Also want to give people a heads up so that they don’t end up in the same loop I did at first. This guy is pretty vile. Just today he denied that the holocaust was even that bad because “not all the jews died”
Ah yes, I could just make millions of torrents by DDLing one by one through their shitty web UI because retards who have database and files all on their servers aren’t willing to do it.
What an amazing idea…
You clowns clearly don’t care about preserving books.
This eerily reminds of books burning.
Imagine working on taking Z library down as your day job and still sleeping at night. Scum of the earth.
Meh government jobs can be depressing from what I’ve heard. The big thing is that many who work in government have watched over the years how multiple parties and various personalities fail to bring meaningful change and I can only imagine how depressing it is. It is no doubt that a government job, much like teaching is meant to be symbolic as a position of caretaking so to speak, but one with more authority than real inspiration and information.
The next big thing in my mind is the evolution of government systems, ie the human body and mind has already managed to become versatile enough to adapt itself across a variety of ecosystems, the next big thing will be how our systems adapt to the human circumstances on a large scale in a manner that will not be controlled or directed by a single authority like a government, but by a anarchic democratic meritocracy where the more material knowledge and capability you can provide the group the more information and transparency is given to you for further investment into the system you are part of or rely on.
Yes I’m drunk lol
You can’t even imagine the amount of problems a simple grunt can cause in any given process, without going against orders.
Following due process is often enough to bog down processes to a point whatever is being done is rendered useless when finally achieved.
Did torrents become extinct? Or even something like ipfs?
Torrents suck for things that aren’t all that popular. Once the last seeder stops seeding, that torrent is useless.
I once left a torrent on for ~three years at 50%, obviously no one seeded that anymore. one day i realised it was completed, and i have no idea when. now i only streamed my high sea amusements, i don’t even have a torrent client on anymore, but i like to think that the three copies seeded from mine (based on uploaded data) is still out there somewhere.
You can find torrents here if you’re willing to seed 181TB for the full dataset, or 43TB for just zlibrary https://annas-archive.org/torrents
