Not sure you can call it censorship if it's the author of the book who doesn't want you to access it for free. I know there are a few levels of indirection here, but with a few notable exceptions authors are normally against their books being pirated.

I personally sure want Anna's Archive staying up, but comparing it to nazis burning books is a bit too much IMO

Because the US doesn't act against copyright infringement? They just suspended the Annas Archive .org domain

At least we don't ban books from Libraries, because they contain the true history or "wrong thought" and Republicans don't like that

This isn't banning books, it's akin to banning a book store. If a book store chain isn't paying their taxes and gets shut down, the books have not been banned or censored.

Don't even need to rely to anti-piracy to find book banners. US public schools continue to accelerate their book banning tendencies.

We need to keep fighting for the right to read freely.

Meanwhile, waiting for Cloudflare to walk away from their US government contracts to protest these blatant free speech attacks.

US owns the registrars, they just deregister domains they don't like and show some sort of FBI logo instead.
