Internet Archive
Publishers are trying, and so far succeeding, to destroy the Internet Archive. If they get their way, they will wipe out vast amounts of information that no longer exists in any other place or form. They will also greatly decrease the value of the web as massive amounts of links disappear forever.
And these are the people who are supposed to be creating and maintaining works of knowledge. These are the people -- currently trying to work great evil on humanity's knowledge base -- who are trusted to handle the flow of information. It would seem this trust is misplaced.
For fucksake people, if you want to get rich, the last place to do that is making books. Go play with the stock market.
