How to keep people from reading

Coulda seen that coming.

It's always about "money/property" which is understandable from a certain perspective... but regrettable in effect.

Less access to works... unless you pay.

I wonder if the end-effect will be what I seem to see coming.... no more reading unless someone gets money - forevermore.

(Wouldn't it be amazing if they applied this to the Bible, Koran, Bhagavad Gita (Mahabharata, or other Sanskrit/Vedas)... Could you imagine the 'royalties' that would generate?  Ask the CoS,... they know.)

Ahh the future... seeing it coming doesn't change a thing.
