Hi Milos,
that is a perfectly fine opinion to hold, thanks for sharing. However, the WMF should, in my opinion, only make political statements like severing ties with an organisation that offers something that is useful to the editing community, either when legally obligated, or when there is an overwhelming consensus.
I don't sense such overwhelming consensus just yet.

No problem; anyone can use Sci-Hub. Move on.
Dear Gerard,
You are again ignoring the point intentionally.
No, WMF shouldn't morally support Elsevier by having any relation with them.
Sincerely, Milos
