In an effort to prevent blacklisting of domains (oftentimes by internet providers at the DNS-level in accordance with legal procedures), Z-Library uses a homepage at a memorable domain. The homepage does not contain any infringing content, but instead lists many working mirror domains for different regions. These domains can be switched and do not need to be as memorable. For instance, some include numbers.

Nice try, I guess :/

Which is, of course, the only possible way to work.

Non-mobile link for those of us using desktop browsers: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Z-Library

(can someone explain to me why every site in the world will redirect mobile browsers to a limited page but won't redirect desktop browsers back to the full featured version?)
