Where is now so many #libraries have gotten trapped using #ebook systems based on either Amazon’s Palace or Libby/Overdrive apps (owned by the one of the worst vulture capital companies in the world KKR

Both of whom will gladly sell our personal data to the highest bidder, much less give it over to any government official who comes asking with or without a warrant

I fear the population’s vast e-book usage may be out of local librarians control

@AccordionBruce @indubitablyodin

While you're absolutely right, I prefer to focus on the fact that this is a story about librarians helping.

@RussSharek @indubitablyodin
It’s a good point. We need positive action news

Not things without suggested response 🙏🏼
