> Do you honestly believe the only reason publishers went after IA is the emergency library?

I mean, they did so right after IA did it, specifically citing IA doing it as why. Maybe they would have come after it eventually anyway but the Emergency Library specifically marked IA as an organisation that couldn't be trusted; even if they would have come after CDL, IA didn't have to hand them a slam-dunk case.

In all their comms about this IA is desperate to reframe it as nothing to do with Emergency Library, probably because they know how it undermines their case completely.

Edit: EA -> Emergency Library




What is the EA?


Flubbed their emergency lending library acronym in my head into -> EA. Edited to clarify.
