- viraptor 5y agoI think you missed the point. It's not about literally tracing the physical source of the paper. I mean the network of printing, distribution, any feedback, etc. leave traces where there's a fairly short chain of people to follow before you find the initial source. This is completely different from online distribution. No agency will complain if you distribute information on paper - they're more likely to say "thank you, please continue, we'd like to learn about your whole network of collaborators".
