@RustyCrab @PurpCat @sneeden Libraries and archives have explicit carveouts to copyright. IA basically said "yo we're a library" and started lending out virtual copies of books, a similar system to what actual libraries do. The lawsuit said the organization doesn't meet the traditional definition of a library, courts agreed, so they don't get the copyright and virtual lending rights.

I think they're still recognized as a proper archive though, or it hasn't been challenged hard in court yet.
