Hi Peter, I've been curious regarding what sort of legal arrangements a certain family of content providers setup in order to display large sections of third party published materials.
Google books has restrictions to display a fraction of many texts but they obviously reproduced entire texts to filter upon. I'm curious if there are commentary apps out there that take whole literature and overlay new layers atop it and have published reproductions of their own somewhere in their infrastructure.
I'd like to know how websites like the above are made possible with most published stuff gated with permissions going like
"""All rights reserved. No part of this publication may be reproduced, distributed, or transmitted in any form or by any means, including photocopying, recording, or other electronic or mechanical methods, without the prior written permission of the publisher""".
Some examples
