@CStamp @lio @internetarchive You keep using that word "theft". I don't think it means what you think it means. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theft If you think something is copyright infringement, then please say that instead (and if possible provide references why you think so). For example, in my little part of the world (#Croatia in #EU), the right of public libraries is enshrined in #Copyright law and does not require any consent of the copyright holders (much less authors). 1/n 3 comments
@CStamp @lio @internetarchive Any yes, we are taxed for that privilege, and those taxes are supposedly being used to support the said artists. I don't know the situation in Internet Archives jurisdiction, but would like to learn -- without being called names. (and if possible, by someone knowledgeable providing links to back up their claims. If you're interested in my references for #Croatia it's at https://www.zakon.hr/z/106/Zakon-o-autorskom-pravu-i-srodnim-pravima članak 34.) 2/2 |

@mnalis @lio @internetarchive It is stealing someone's livelihood to take a book, scan it, then make it available to masses of people.
