With most people preferring 'e-books', I wonder when certain paragraphs or chapters of offensive books may vanish?

After all, there is precedent of that kind of activity on behalf of governments in the old Soviet Union, and Communist China. Now adulteration and selective censoring of electric media is even easier. Computers and digital media would have been Hitler's and Stalin's dream come true.

I don't even think most libraries are keeping hard copies of much these days. It's impossible to keep piles of old newspapers and magazines, even if you wanted to.

I try to make hard and digital copies of anything I like on the web, and I still keep physical books. I hope I continue to have the luxury of space and time to do so.
