After seeing a post on it yesterday, I’ve looked more deeply into Anthropic’s purchasing and destruction of millions of used books.

They spent tens of millions of dollars acquiring and destroying books to train their AI model, Claude.

They knew, from the beginning that it would be unpopular. They knew what they were doing, was wrong.

An internal memo from 2024 stated:

“Project Panama is our effort to destructively scan all the books in the world.”

“We don’t want it to be known that we are working on this.”

Why used books?

Companies like Anthropic and Meta found it impractical to gain permission from authors and publishers to use their work.

So instead, they stole their work to train their product through mass purchases of used books and through pirating them from the internet.

The authors of these works, didn’t receive a dime for their efforts. These companies stole the hard won literary talent of others to train machines to replace the victims of their theft.

Anthropic cofounder Ben Mann personally downloaded countless books for this purpose from LibGen, a book pirating website.

When a new book piracy website debuted in 2022, Mann sent an email sharing the link with his employees stating: “just in time!!!”

Meta employees were wary about the piracy of books, with one engineer writing, “Torrenting from a corporate laptop doesn’t feel right.”

Anthropic purchased millions of books, in batches of tens of thousands from Better World Books and U.K.-based World of Books.

They then used a “hydraulic powered cutting machine” to slice off the spines of these books before scanning them. Finally, the remains of these books were picked up for recycling.

Feel free to use AI, it’s a free country.

But remember that, if you use Claude, that Anthropic has committed a great wrong, and they knew that they were doing it from the beginning.

Below is an image, from a court case, of a warehouse full of used books, that instead of being held and read by you and your children, have been destroyed forever.

AI is inevitable, but spend your money on the companies who do good, and do not knowingly commit evils.

May the most moral company win.

If you love old books, go out and buy them. Pass them on as an inheritance to your children. Remember, what’s preserved in these old printed books and dictionaries can’t be changed, altered, or censored.

Peter Obi will address this. We won’t allow those that did not go to school to mess with the future of our children. This is tantamount to criminalizing education. Will akara & vegetable sellers afford ₦50,000 for WAEC or NECO?

More students are going to drop out of school.

Bola Ahmed Tinubu @officialABAT is determined to rollback the gains Nigerian children have made. He is determined to replace intellectualism with Olodo Uprising.

They gave you NELFUND & increased your Examination Fee from ₦27,500 to ₦50,000.

This automatically reduces the number of kids admitted into tertiary institutions. It drastically reduces the amount FG spends on NELFUND.

But is anyone the least surprised that this is coming at a time when Nigerian pupils are winning the Cambridge IGCSE English & Mathematics? It came when our children are smashing the International STEM Olympiad & the Pan African Maths Olympiad (PAMO).

Education came under attack in 11 years!

“My people perish for lack of knowledge.” The APC are against any attempt to emancipate the people. But we won’t allow this crazy hike to stand. It must be reversed immediately! 😡😡

Sued His University to the Supreme Court and Won ₦20,000,000!

Case: Victor v. F.U.T.A. (2026) 8 NWLR (Pt. 2044) 33

Imagine graduating, knowing your grades were wrongly calculated, but being handed a lower class of degree than you earned. Most students would accept "fate" and move on.

Mr. Adebayo A. Victor refused to back down.

What makes this story incredible? Victor was a layman (not a lawyer), yet he personally prosecuted this case through the entire hierarchy of courts for nearly two decades.

The 19-Year Battle for a 2:1
In 2007, Victor graduated in Mechanical Engineering from FUTA, receiving a Second Class Lower.

Convinced his scores were wrongly recorded, he spent four years begging the university to re-mark 10 specific courses. The university ignored him.

In 2011, he sued. The journey was brutal:
2013: The trial court dismissed his case on a technicality. Victor appealed and won a retrial.
2017: The High Court finally ordered FUTA to re-mark his scripts. FUTA refused and appealed.

2022: Under Supreme Court pressure, FUTA finally complied and re-marked the scripts.

The Plot Twist: Victor was right all along. The independent re-marking officially upgraded his degree to a Second Class Upper. His correct certificate was physically handed to him in open court at the Supreme Court.

The Supreme Court Defends Student Rights
With the degree secured, the Supreme Court turned its attention to the university’s conduct.

Led by Justice Helen Moronkeji Ogunwumiju, JSC, the apex court established a massive precedent:
The Duty of Care: While universities have academic autonomy, they owe a "Duty of Care" to their students. They must provide fair assessments and transparent complaint procedures.

The Penalty: By ignoring Victor for years and causing him to lose international scholarship opportunities, FUTA breached that duty.

The lower court had awarded Victor a mere ₦500,000. The Supreme Court threw that out as too small and reviewed the awards upward:
₦18,000,000 in General Damages for emotional distress.

₦2,000,000 in Litigation Costs.

Total Takeaway: Victor walked away with his rightful Second Class Upper degree and ₦20,000,000 in compensation.

The Big Insight
"Justice is not a fencing game where one party seeks to outsmart the other." Whether you run a university or a business, you cannot hide behind institutional bureaucracy to ignore legitimate complaints.

Huge respect to Mr. Adebayo Victor for his unmatched resilience!

Could you have held on for 15+ years to defend your academic rights? Let’s map it out in the comments!

8 Nigerian soldiers were beheaded by terrorists.

There is no Declaration of War. No declaration of State of Emergency. No flags flown at half-staff. No National address from the President.

Everywhere is quiet. The soldiers died for nothing! The heroes of Nigeria are no more! 💔

The banditry attack in Esinele has left more than empty classrooms, it has left broken hearts and wounded childhoods.

Children who left home excited to learn were instead met with fear, violence, and uncertainty.

This is a tragedy that should never happen to any child.

@aedcelectricity It has been four days since we had light and 2 days since your reply. This particular part of Jabi is still without electricity. What is being done about this and the vandalised transformer?

@aedcelectricity @aedcelectricity Hello, good morning. It has been four days since we had light and 2 days since your reply. This particular part of Jabi is still without electricity. What is being done about this and the vandalised transformer?

[Oto @o_ottoline]

@aedcelectricity Thank you for your reply, we still do not have light.
