Unless we know this to be the case it's reasonable to assume it might be more.

Why would that be a reasonable assumption? This is so blown out of proportion. The imagery invoked by the narrative is one of huge corporations destroying the final copies of literary treasures. That's just not happening.

    And that is a reasonable assumption?

    • I believe that is the rational default assumption, yes. Presumably there is some known list of books that they purchased and ran through these scanning machines. If there are true literary treasures that are genuinely hard to get access to on that list, then I would join the ideological crusade against.
