“Ah, just one more thing, sir. You’re blowing up those boats, saying they’re filled with drugs headed for the US. But then you go and pardon the guy who brought in 400 tons of cocaine. That’s billions of doses. Help me understand that.”

The books are never going to go away.

They're going to only be available to those with the means to access them.

When they remove the points of access like libraries and schools, then they achieve their goal of making everything about who has the most money and means to get the thing.

Act now to stop millions of research papers from disappearing
Digital preservation is not keeping up with the growth of scholarly knowledge. Recognizing its causes is the first step to securing records everywhere for future generations.
