1 year agoDo you know what library genesis and z-library are?? They are literally libraries of pirated materials.
And yeah they can read the book, but shouldn’t be able to use its content in a commercial way (e.g. make money) off of its contents without the permission of the writer/copyright holder.
Mine are also literary. They are references to Sanderson’s cosmere series and the names chosen reflect their purpose.
I have an old optiplex SFF which is called Preservation because it has a disk drive for ripping media, it’s a disk wiping station for repurposing drives, and it’s old hardware I’m preserving.
