Internet Archive forced to remove half a million books, including more than 1,300 banned and challenged, as a result of publishers’ lawsuit. There is an open letter you might want sign - and if you care about freedom of knowledge, I encourage you to do it - but seriously, how long will this resistance last in a world full of copyright bullshit? And how much scientific progress, how many rare books and will we lose in this fight? Internet Archive is doing a fantastic job, but we cannot rely on "legal" archiving only. Pirate and save everything that is important to you - one day you might become a holder of the last copy who can share it with the world.
