From the responses in this thread, it seems like OP is either a fed, or, much more likely, extremely inexperienced and naive when it comes to Opsec. At the very least, they are putting themselves at risk. Is it still advisable to leave this post up?

Glad to see this initiative. A genuine question: isn't this redundant with Annas Archive?

annas archive doesnt have fast downloads for free users - downloads take around a good 30 mins for a decently sized books

bookracy aims to fix this issue
