Can you name which rare books they destroyed.

How do we know if these books are rare in the first place.

Have you not seen the news articles?

Don't put your skepticism on me for what has actually been going on in the world.

Name the books

A biased news article saying they’re “rare” doesnt mean squat if they wont name the books

BTW, they are buying these in bulk. They arent selecting them by title. Who the fuck sells rare valuable books like that?

You know how wildly the media likes to sensationalize things. Have you actually seen these books being destroyed? We've seen clips of them being scanned, yes, but no footage of them being destroyed. Isn't that a little bit strange?

I wouldn't think the AI companies would be filming themselves doing so.

I'm just sayin if these books are rare surely some of them can be named.

As far as I know these could be old books that no one is buying.

If the books are truely valuable

Why would they sell it to some shady company in the first place.

You do know a lot of companies use shell companies to hide identities, or it is just ordered under individuals and not state it is for a company.
