It's a US "non-profit". One that demands 19$ per article which they merely provide as aggregator, they don't own shit.

Utterly absurd.

Non profit here merely means they are exemot from US income taxes so they are grifting even hardrr on us.

MIT is grifting in a similar but bigger manner.

Which means they're adding profit margin to the otherwise zero marginal cost of said information good.
