Copying it. Because they clearly believe that they’re allowed to do so.

For physical books, they believe they’re not allowed to, hence the destruction.

It’s abhorrent, I agree… maybe if your world domination plan involves destroying rare books, you should change the plan rather than saying “well our hands our tied, the law says we have to”
