For me, the real story here is not about losing some newspaper archives. The real story here is to show how broken the system is right now. Is this even a human society anymore? Where SEO link farms and AI-generated junk replace local community history, where prime real estate is gutted by private equity firms, and all of this is done through shadowy foreign-registered businesses that have no stake in your collective well-being. And there are some who defend this as capitalism. The market decided what is worth keeping, they said. Except "the market" isn't human, and what it has decided to keep isn't something I, as a human, want to be a part of.
