There's a ton of ancient documents and books that don't have copies of them (Chinese stuff for example that wasn't all digitized), please tell me data centers aren't seriously trying to take those as well and burn those as well

    I think its a solid bet to say that if there's a price on it, data centers will pay.

    That being said, China is famously protective of their shit. So if its in their hands, its probably safe.
