Zlibrary.org and 200 domains seized in IP piracy sting

Z-Library, operating from the domain Zlibrary.org, was one of the largest shadow libraries on the internet.

Using a varying number of alternate domain names in numerous TLDs and gTLDs, Z-Library provided free, unlicensed access to more than 11 million books and 84 million articles.

Publishers and authors were not happy with Z-Library, leading to the seizure of more than 200 domain names associated with the pirate e-book repository:

These domains no longer resolve but have been moved to domain nameservers (DNS) operated by the US Department of Justice, SeizedServers.com.

Two additional domains that aren’t on the same DNS, b-ok.lat and booksc.org, display the following image on their landing page:

Despite this massive shut-down, the “bibliophiles” appear determined to continue their public sharing of these books.
