My guess is HP makes such an enormous amount of money already from movies, games, toys, and other tie-ins, that they can't be bothered to chase down the odd digital infringement of a plain text copy of the original books.
I'm sure the scripts of Star Wars would be similarly ignored if they were used.
- amanzi 8mo agoThat doesn't justify what's going on here. Why is Microsoft endorsing the use of pirated materials.
- outside1234 8mo agoThe dataset is actually at Kaggle tho, but agree, they shouldn't use it as an example.
- crtasm 8mo agoThe file being hosted by another company doesn't change the fact that Microsoft is encouraging us to download and use it.
- Hamuko 8mo agoI think Microsoft employees should be smart enough to figure that "a globally beloved collection of seven books" (their words) is probably not free to use.

- Ekaros 8mo agoIt is just very hard problem when you are very popular work. Trying to find and track and take down all copies of certain work online is constant fight. Sometimes things just slip especially if they are not that popular. Something like Harry Potter might be shared every day. And I mean as pirate work distributed as new copy. Staying on top of that will be very hard work.
