For me that link is going to a Russian-language site. Anybody else having that problem or is it my phone?

Yes - its a russian language site. You may have to enter a Captcha (password like thing) to get to the PDF (which is of course in English) of the research paper. Probably not so helpful if you’re accessing from a phone (as the PDF is formatted for 8 by 11 paper).

Here is more about Sci-Hub - the site that is providing these research papers:
