Yet more examples of how copyright destroys culture rather than driving it - Lemmy.World

Another concerns equity and accessibility:

removal of more than 500,000 books from public access is a serious blow to lower-income families, people with disabilities, rural communities, and LGBTQ+ people, among many others.

so low-income people in the argument are pretty obvious

how about people with disabilities or rural communities? why are they there? do they have easier access to libraries than bookstore?

and what the hell are lgbt people doing there? do they read disproportionally more more than average non-lgbt population, or why are they singled out?

seems like this whole paragraph is just “lets throw in some minorities, no one can talk back at that” lame argument

rural communities

Online lending allows people in remote or rural places much now economical access to more titles than otherwise, even if they have access to a decent local library

oh right, i totally ignored the “digital” part, even though i mentioned that in nearby reply. my bad.
