Unofficial Paywall-Free COVID19 Archive Consumes Half a Terabyte of Bandwidth

An unofficial paywall-free archive of scientific papers is spreading hope, not disease, to the scientific community. Since its launch under a week ago, visitors from all over the world to the 5,300+ study resource have consumed almost half a terabyte of bandwidth. The archive currently holds 5,532 studies and papers dating from 2020 right back to 1968. At the time of writing, the project has received more than half a million requests which in turn have consumed around half-a-terabyte.
