BREAKING NEWS: Google Books is helping NJ, CA steal books from the public

a book was published in 1950 - RENEWED IN 2014 - no record of any other renewal
(after 29 years it becomes public acess in the case. google got a government grant to digitize it which the NJ publisher got for free and turned around to obama copyright office and got a NEW BUT ILLEGAL COPYRIGHT)
the price: $107, being sold as a school book "created in 2014" (wen you open cover you see it was first copyright in 1950, but they do not say it)
(the above is completely true, legally, unless the copyright search by the copyright dept themselves is broken)
GOOGLE IS CERTAINLY IN THE CONSPIRACY - they digitized it, do not allow access to the digital download - AND, unlike other texts, REMOVED the dispute button from it's page (meaning if you wish to report a book should be accessible you cannot, but on most other books you CAN - not that a bunch of criminals are going to do anything but hang up on you , mind you)

(let me be more clear: the author's orig. publisher could have renewed on the proper year AND ONLY ON THAT YEAR, but isn't even within a decade of that time)

furhtermore, Amazon.com is selling books written in 1933 for $60 THAT ARE FREE FOR DOWNLOAD - which Amazon conveniently forgets to notify (buyers) (for other books where PDF is charged for it is on a separate tab with prices - Amazon is lying and saying the PDF is not available when in fact IT IS IN THE PUBLIC DOMAIN and highly available)

the library of congress is paying (multiple publishers) to re-print STOLEN passages from various sources WITH DIGITAL SPAM ADS - IE, VOLVO AUTO ADS, ASIAN LANGUAGE LEARNING ADS, and to submit this as "a free library of congress book"
FURTHERMORE - the library of congress has permitted G2 Pakistani to re-print USA copyright passages in books then import the same as FREE BOOKS, usurping USA book copyright and exporting (certain information) to FOREIGN COUNTRIES - THIS WAS NO DOUBT BEGUN DURING CLINTON AND THEN OBAMA (paying foreigners to steal our shit)

when the library system was created, people accused (thomas jefferson, or was it franklin?) of subterfuge
he was accused of having hoarded too many book and using public money to house them - house them in a place he could access (at the hill, the library of congress) - to free his own home of the clutter and keep his books safe yet accessible
THE ACCUSERS NEVER DREAMED THE LC WOULD BUY BOOKS FROM PUBLISHERS THAT PUBLISHERS COULDN'T SELL (funding a criminal industry of rewarding thieves and failed books).
THE ACCUSERS NEVER DREAMED THAT HILLARY CLINTON STATE DEPT. WOULD BUY BOOKS FROM FOREIGN NATIONS COMPOSED OF STOLEN USA AND UK BOOKS THAT FREED COUNTRIES THAT DIDN'T PAY IN FROM BUYING BOOKS FROM COPYRIGHTED USA UK SOURCES.
THE ACCUSERS NEVER DREAMED THAT FAIRFAX COUNTY GOV WOULD FUND ILLEGAL ALIENS AND GOV PAY BY BUILDING MULTI-MILLION DOLLAR LIBRARIES USING ILLEGAL LABOR AND HANDING OUT (pay and lifestyle that would make a railroad tycoon's house look like a failed property)
if they had known that, they wouldn't have complained because thomas jefferson wouldn't have thought "donating books to the hill building" was a good idea
he flatly didn't know and hadn't dreamed of the outcome

i admit the book was a guarded copyright ... IN THE YEARS OF 1600's it was
i admit the book was improved slightly since the 1800's (but hardly mind you, mostly re-organizing and copied text from specialty books and little of that)
i DO NOT admit that "questions and answers" in the (school) book merit copyright or payment because: i asked a teacher once why the problems were so poorly written and so often incorrect in nature. he told me "students write the problems for credit and they get in the book - the teachers do not write them"
ah - now the picture is becoming clear - the only factor here is in printing - but PDF format has ruined that for them - so their only choice from where they are (exporting tech to foreign countries and using usa taxpayer money to aid it, having no true copyright) is TO CHEAT AND LIE LIKE HELL claiming rights on works they didn't even pay the renewal on

and print "created in 2014" all rights reserved (while a note of original copy right of 1932 somewhere else) quite literally (i filed a complaint on that one - i expect some foreigner is having quite a laugh while deleting the concern)

so your telling me (many) school books have changed little from the 1600, hardly at all from the 1700's, and most of the problems were provide FREE leached off college students for "extra credit or homework" and copyrighted by publishers ??

Google gets TONS of U.S.A. taxpayer federal grant money (hillary stat dept)
* for "developing" a web browser they stole from usa (mosiaic / netscape), the stolen name is "firefox"
* for mapping (all maps are by dept. of defense, but google isn't paying for the maps - i would have to if i wanted to use them)
* for scanning library books (illegally, and giving access to USA's defense literature to foreign hostile nations btw), and presenting them in a form that allows STOLEN WORKS TO BE HIDDEN
* for all other kinds of "PROJECTS"
** they are a communist enterprise operating inside the usa

another IMPORTANT factor of this is google and publishers area doing massive fraud
THE LIBRARY SYSTEM (ie, the "congressional library" that should never have been built) DIGITIZES OLD BOOKS (or stolen books etc), BOOK PUBLISHERS sell the books on (Google, Amazone, ...) in PDF for FOR A FEE
this means the product they are selling IS YOUR PRODUCT NOT THEIRS
furthermore this goes for books that were first printed (ie, in 1906) (which get relabeled as published in 1993 for example)

the crimes include working with "archive.org" (government grant funded with high dollar paychecks)
IT ALLOWS UPLOADS OF NON-FREE COPYRIGHT PROTECTED BOOKS BY ANONYMOUS PERSONS MARKING THE MATERIAL AS "OPENSOURCE" and contains incorrect copyright indications otherwise
it is HOSTED AS PART OF THE LIBRARY SYSTEM - india is often "involved"
IT SHOULD BE TAKEN OFF THE AIR LIKE TORRENTS WERE (for hosting stolen software and movies, viruses, and rooting computers)

I PERSONALLY CONTACTED ONE OF THE AUTHORS (he's living) AND HE ASSURED ME I COULD BUY A COPY IF I WANTED ONE, that it is non-free, and he would look into it. (also, the publisher printed such rights recently, the book release is recent, there are many other hands down indicators archive.org is being paid millions by hillary state department to export trillions of dollars of books and do billios of dollars of free services for india and other countries)

so you have to ask, if i am your guide, WHY ARE THESE PEOPLE (gov workers, grant takers) BEING PAID SO MUCH ??
Why is it when you apply for employment they tell you "there's no room" ??
These people are in the business of giving away USA's copyrighted books and also selling books that are not copyrighted: both things that DAMAGE USA and are HIGHLY UNPROFITABLE for usa's TAX COLLECTION initiative (maga).
how do people dually involved in breaking america and loosing taxes get to the position of HIGHLY RICH and in the position to deny other's the chance to compete at the same time ??

you have to realize americans end up paying for MAKING of the books then end up the only country in which one has to pay to get them (thus, we are in the information blackout, but india is not - USING OUR LIBRARY AND MONEY)
