I'd meant to check back here earlier, but thanks for posting a source!

Imo it should always be on the op to provide credible sources beyond a social media account, especially if they want to spread information and make action happen. I appreciate you doing that in a follow up and helping people look beyond screenshots or easily faked images. It's too easy to be create fake outrage and because of how SEO and filter bubbles work, difficult to find an article on this particular instance again, thanks.

It's quite outrageous this ever was (and continues to be) an ongoing issue.

Is there a source here other than a random Twitter account?

My entire state has access to NYT, Chicago tribune, USA today, a ton of other popular newspapers and our local newspaper through their libraries for free.

Time for a library card.

Went to look at the TOS. The service generated data (10.2) isn't actually the bad part. However, 10.4 is.

I'm a librarian who orders books for this section. It is really weird to go from UFOs and Bigfoot to programming with php and Linux books.

First thing, check with your local public library.

They are most likely going to already have a free app to use with your library card. (If you don't have a library card, get one. They are free and it is very illegal for libraries to give your data to anyone without a court ordered warrant).

My library uses Libby, and it's great for the most part on any smart device.

If you do end up licensing (and it's a license, not a purchase). Amazon's Kindle store is good and has some exclusives.
