Well great so the Internet Archive is off the hook then.
Also, at least so far, we don't call computers "someone".
> Archive is off the hook then
Probably so, because with "library" I did not mean the "building". It is the decision of the society to make knowledge available.
> we don't call computers "someone"
We do instead, for this purpose. Why should we not. Anything that can read fits the set.

Edit: Come up with the arguments, sniper.
> We do instead, for this purpose
Why just that one purpose? Let's pay them a fair wage, deduct income tax and social security, enforce reasonable working hours and conditions etc.
Moderation,
there is an asimmetry between agreement and disagreement: the latter requires arguments.
"Sneering and leaving" is antisocial, and that is underlying most of downvoting.
Stop this deficient, improductive and disruptive culture.
