You're misunderstanding the purpose of this exercise, which is to ensure that the data behind SciHub isn't lost if the Kopyright Kops shut down the org &/or the people running it. It's vital that, no matter what they do, the data itself remains available, otherwise they win.
Some universal remotes have a library of different manufacturers' IR codes, & you have tell it what brand & model of device you want to control - & hope that all your stuff is supported - some work by recording the signals from the proprietary remotes, & yet another kind do both; such as the one that's currently sitting on my lounge room table.
As wrong as TP is about just about everything else, they're not wrong about the remotes.

If they choose to keep using it anyway, why stop them?
Because, as at least one commenter has pointed out, 1) more & more websites are outsourcing their comment sections to FB, so without an FB account, you're silenced. 2) More importantly, organisations you may need to interact with online use a FB page instead of running their own website.
