The Open Update is a weekly digest on open science, released every Tuesday. In this episode we look at the continued streak of legal pursuits against Sci-Hub, the website that allows people to circumvent paywalls. We talk about last weeks hack of the Dutch research council and this weeks hack at the University of Amsterdam. We have our quick up-to-dates and finally I want to share with you some great software news.
