“We are reviewing the court’s opinion and will continue to defend the rights of libraries to own, lend, and preserve books.”

Unpopular opinion: They stepped out of their fucking lane. There are already laws that protect actual libraries, in fact most nations have laws to ensure libraries have access to all locally published works.

One good thing to come of this is I've now joined my national and local libraries.

Agreed. While a noble cause, it was honestly predictable.

I don't understand why they did that. Their status was already quite shaky. They really shot themselves and their users in the foot
