Post says the real problem in Anthropic’s book-scanning case was a judge’s destruction order
iScienceLuvr · x · 2026-07-29
A post argues that the real issue in the Anthropic book-scanning dispute is the judge’s requirement that books be destroyed, not the scanning itself.
- The author says there are many valid reasons to criticize Anthropic.
- But they call the anti-AI framing misleading, and blame the court decision for forcing book destruction instead of allowing scanning only.
- The core point is a legal/copyright dispute around how training materials were handled, not a model release or product update.
