You can let them know everything was lost in a backup mishap last year and have nothing to hold for them and they can stick it where it doesn't shine.
- sillysaurusx 3y agoI’ve been giving it a lot of thought. The reason I reacted so strongly was out of genuine surprise for what they want here. The books3 dataset was public from day one. I’ve done interviews being totally transparent where the data came from. I also made it in my wife’s parents’ basement, so this letter seems to imply that their basement is under legal hold. In other words, there is no data. There’s no evidence of anything. All the evidence was released openly — it’s how science is replicated. So it seems like it’s a precursor for more actions in the future. And whatever those are, they’ll likely not be friendly.
