Maybe not in the US, but in a lot of jurisdictions you are allowed to make copies/scans of Books, CDs etc. but if you sell the media, you have to delete the copy.Given that anthropic was just fined a $1bn fee for torrenting/piracy, we cant really blame the companies for shredding the books after a scan. We should blame copyright laws.

- Analemma_There's nothing in this article supporting the claim that rare books are being destroyed, it just has a link to a paywalled article from 404 Media.
