WTF
AI companies are purchasing large quantities of used and rare books. Scanning their contents to train models. Then turning the originals to pulp.
The sum of human thought, digitized and shredded.
Every book that gets scanned disappears from the physical world permanently. The knowledge survives only as training data inside a system no one can hold, browse, or resell.
What used to sit on a shelf for centuries now exists as weights in a model that might get deprecated next quarter.

Another phone hack:
When buying a used iPhone or Android, make sure to confirm that the phone isn’t blacklisted or reported stolen.
All you need is the IMEI number.
Dial *#06# to display it and copy it somewhere.
Then go to a trusted IMEI checker website and run a scan.
If the result says “Clean,” you’re good to go.
But if it says “Blacklisted,” that phone may have been reported stolen, lost, or have unpaid carrier bills from the previous owner. And that can land you in serious problems later.
Some people buy cheap phones today and end up unable to use SIM cards tomorrow.
Websites you can use:
• imei. info
• imeicheck. com
