These complaints are so hilariously meaningless and counterproductive I wonder what exactly compels these companies to lodge them. There are very high chances that those academics who use SciHub and LibGen would find some or the other way to access the websites anyway despite the "ban" (if the publishers win the case).
All these publishers are achieving by these antics is just gathering more animosity from scholars; there's just no other benefit they can hope to get by having India's ISPs block those websites when all one needs to do is change to a mirror domain or fire up a VPN to bypass it.
And complaints like this only serve to popularize SciHub further. I first became aware of SciHub back in 2015 because of a high profile lawsuit (I don't remember the details though). And have been using it regularly since then.
This is hilarious. Wiley and Elsevier charge American prices for text books in India for lower quality textbook. This is absolute BS. They only know how to rip off people looking for education. Bunch of thieves.
India has special rules for making patented medicine locally. Perhaps similar rules could apply to papers and books too. Unfortunately that's not up to the court, but the politicians.
