Ruse de guerre
If books (and literate men) disappear, it will be because they are no longer profitable to publish and sell.
It's getting so even tech manuals are only available on-line. The tyranny of profit and the commodification of thought has polluted a 5000
year tradition of literacy. In this environment, writing will soon degenerate into a mere means of communicating with machinery, and the graffiti of commercial manipulation and indoctrination.
You've been to the future SDAI, you should have warned us what was coming. Shame on you.
