Slightly off-topic:

I downloaded the same file both directly from IEEE and sci-hub and the checksum did not match. I am a bit worried that sci-hub is/will be used to spread malware.




It would be interesting to diff the files. Quite a few journals put obvious tracking tags on the downloaded PDFs.


Please provide a link to the article so we can see what's the difference in files.


Was the version of the paper the same?


Same version, different checksums.

As new299 mentioned, this could be due to watermarking.
