The total collection is 54.54 TiB, with 690 torrents as of writing. For preservation purposes, I put magnet links to all the torrents here: https://pastebin.com/zTAqS7wz So, even if the torrents go away, the magnet links should still be usable. (Edited: fixed link)

Safety in numbers is a thing.
They can still make examples out of individuals. A good VPN is probably a better increaser of safety.
Torrenting anything potentially problematic without using a reputable VPN service is foolish. And make sure that the machine is firewalled, to block all traffic (including DNS requests) not using the VPN. Only the VPN client should have direct Internet connectivity.
For extremely sensitive material, it's prudent to use nested VPN chains. So no one provider knows both who/where you are, and what you're doing. The bandwidth hit for chaining is smaller than you might think.
You can also setup your own VPN server on a VPS. But make sure to lease that VPS anonymously, and pay with well-mixed Bitcoin. Do all that through Tor.
But do not torrent through Tor. It's usually very slow. And it screws up Tor for people who really need it.
If we all got to seeding, surely we’d have the oppressors bent over a filthy toilet in no time at all.
Until the cops kick your door in on copyright infringement charges to "make an example" of someone. Don't think it can't happen.

And a torrent that is basically equivalent to that file, thanks to the below commenter:

Each torrent appears to index 100 zip files (about 800 MB each), each of which presumably contains 1000... journal articles? I don't know. The seed isn't blazing fast, so it will be a bit before I can pull out a random zip file from this randomly selected torrent and inspect it.

Downloading all the torrent files: mkdir torrents for i in {000..689}; do curl -sS "http://gen.lib.rus.ec/scimag/repository_torrent/sm_${i}00000-${i}99999.torrent" -o "torrents/sm_${i}00000-${i}99999.torrent" -m 30; done ...which themselves take up about 75 MB, so here is the full collection of torrent files for your convenience: https://lab.brainonfire.net/drop/delete-after/20180630/torre...

Magnet link for simplicity:

Of course not. Copyright law is extraordinarily restrictive, and you, me, and everybody you know is guilty of violation after violation, easily enough to bankrupt hundreds of millions of people if strict enforcement were applied. SciHub is all normal copyrighted published work; The publishers claim the same commercial status as an album or novel. The fact that there are currently 69 million works bundled means that w…
You wouldn't be fined. You'd be arrested and charged criminally, and likely spend the rest of your life in jail. The public does not understand and would happily hang you for being one of those evil hackers. The person who tells them you belong there would be a $1000/hour professional witness. Infinite-term copyright builds dynasties. They do not take kindly to competition. Stay safe.
It’s going to be ugly. We’re talking about billions in profits being threatened here with the law on their side. The only defense I’ve heard is with regard to research funded by the US federal government and that’s a long shot argument that applies to a minority of these articles.
