Internet Archive’s other projects like the Wayback Machine may be good but how they handled their digital lending of books during the pandemic was not. They removed the limit on the number of people that can borrow a book at a time, thus taking away any resemblance to traditional physical lending. You can argue that copyright laws are bad and should be changed (and I’d agree) but that doesn’t change the facts of what happened under the current law.
I’ve never seen someone self-report a failure of Amerikan History like this before. You must’ve missed THE ENTIRE Civil Rights Movement segment, or just tuned it out because it made you or someone close to you uncomfy to think about-- like I’ve asked another person in this thread, what the fuck do you think CIVIL DISOBEDIENCE means???
Nobody gives a shit. Internet Archive is good; the law is wrong.

How do you propose we break laws without…breaking them?
He is proposing not to break them and work toward changing the law first.
I don’t propose we break the laws, I propose we change them.
Straw meet man.
If you think you need to break laws to get them changed, you must’ve failed Civics 101
If you think you can chang oppressive laws without breaking laws, you’re a boot licker with no education of history
