Incredible website. Really one of the dreams of the internet realised, the ability to access all knowledge at your fingertips.

Probably the greatest achievement of modern society, a rebirth of the Library of Alexandria. Of course, only private for-business corporations are allowed to steal the world's knowledge, apparently, and only to be able to monetise it. There's something deeply wrong with our civilization that Anna's Archive is punished while companies like OpenAI, Google, Amazon, Anthropic, etc are just ... ignored when they do things like destructively digitise books or pirate things.

		By "ignored" do you mean everyone on the Internet yelling about it all over all the platforms?

I was blown away when I paid to get an API key for it. The process is intricate and state of the art.

What's the process like? I wasn't aware there was a paid API key.

You buy an Amazon gift card as a gift and use the email Anna's Archive provide you as the recipient. The email is unique to you so they know when you paid them.

		How on earth are they able to cash in on that? Surely they are not ordering neither air fryers nor their servers from Amazon.. Or anything for that matter, given the illegality of AA. Do they resell them at 90% on eBay?
