Ease aside. I think civil disobedience to promote open access should be scaled based on the urgency of information. Not everything on substack has societal benefit, some is fictional entertainment or simply of personal expression. To me to distribute personal expression intended for a specific audience, else where, devalues the message of the urgency to information when those who do choose civil disobedience to distribute scientific or journalistic publications illegally, and suggests the belief that personal expression doesn’t hold value be it paywalled or in the form of a zap in an open distribution model.
