While we can quibble (and are) over the details of this particular occurrence, I'm beginning to take the opinion that used/rare booksellers need to implement some form of "KYC" to help guard against the epistemic threats posed by this practice.

The booksellers are probably so ecstatic to get some value out of books otherwise destined for the landfill that they wouldn't lift a finger for "epistemic threats".
