It was talked about like a really big deal, and that it dealt a blow towards the Controlled Digital Lending-scheme. IA also had to remove 500k books. But how is Internet Archive able to keep continuing lending out many books as they were before? What were the real consequences of Hachette v. Internet Archive?

I'm curious and still hoping someone answers.

Maybe this needs to be in c/askLemmy ? https://lemmy.world/c/asklemmy
