Internet Archive Situation
"More than 500,000 books have been taken out of lending as a result of Hachette v. Internet Archive, the publishers’ lawsuit against our library, including more than 1,300 banned and challenged books."
Publishers also removed 1984, The most Orwellian thing they could have done, the book is a cautionary tale!!
Those books are still available on this website. If possible, support them; they accept crypto donations. You can also buy a membership; worth it.
