It is illegal and immoral to rehost someone's work against their very clear wishes. But obviously you want to do it anyway, so just do it if you're willing to deal with the consequences. IIRC other attempts to rehost PFSC have received DMCA takedown notices, so there is someone trying to keep it off the internet.

I guess I can see the illegal, but immoral? All I want to do is read a free webcomic for free, which is exactly what I was doing before the author had a mental breakdown and vanished before I could even possibly pay them for their work.

Taking someone else's work and using it in a way they expressly do not want it used is not a nice thing to do, even if the author is crazy. It also devalues the work in the unlikely event that Basic Income Please gets some help and decides to start making comics again.
