minus-squaredan@upvote.aulinkfedilinkarrow-up4·edit-21 year ago The thing that triggered Internet Archive’s current enormous lawsuit problems is that they weren’t imposing a borrower limit. They did have a limit for books originally, but removed it during COVID: https://blog.archive.org/2020/03/24/announcing-a-national-emergency-library-to-provide-digitized-books-to-students-and-the-public/. I agree that it was a poor decision.
