I mean I can forgive crossing the line, it was covid, which were special circumstances. It’s frustrating though because they basically ruined a good thing, lending one digital per physical copy they owned was a nice grey area, but now there is a ruling stating that is explicitly illegal.

What I cannot forgive is their flimsy legal argument that had no legal principles behind it, and particularly the fact that they tried the same bullshit on appeal, instead of just cutting their losses. All the while they were campaigning for donations to pay for it.
