One of the great things about the modern world is that it is very easy to create copies of a work all over the world. But that doesn't mean it will necessarily happen, it requires forethought and a willingness to hold onto those copies. I fear the book-burnings to come.
- acqq 9y agoCorrect. And on the internet, the whole big sites with valuable content disappear overnight. That is why I actively support the Internet Archive and would like to motivate others to do the same: https://archive.org/donate/ https://archive.org/donate/ Also: "Right now, a generous supporter will match your donations 3-to-1—so you can triple your impact. That means for every dollar you donate right now, the Internet Archive will receive $4 in all." I really believe what they are doing is very important even relatively short-term, that is, even measured in years.
- TazeTSchnitzel 9y ago…well, I just donated $50, thank you for reminding me I should.
