I wonder how these people sleep at night... Fighting over scraps for a book with such significance. Shameful. There's no other words.

I wonder how these people sleep at night

With stacks of hundreds under the pillow.

Capitalism fighting over a diary is ridiculous, at least recorded books released an audiobook of it.

I can only hope this 'case' is quashed so hard into the stone age it comes from that it weakens copyrights worldwide.

Nothing screams "capitalism!" louder than a geofencing over Anne Frank of all things.

I don't speak Dutch, but it'd be a shame if someone found and distributed this "copyrighted" text, such as this link and this link, as they're trying to block people from accessing, quite possibly, the most influential and important piece of writing, created by a little girl, chronicling her and her people's torture and demise...won't someone think of the corporation...

"You can't put it on the internet anywhere in the world because we own the rights in one country" is some deranged bullshit.
