Except the school paid royalties for that specific book. Every book. The money was distributed. Writers, publishers and so on. The normal stuff.

Or if you had to buy the book yourself, same thing, distributed, royalties paid.

So your complaint is that they didn't pay for training data by buying every book found online?

That does seem more reasonable, but makes public libraries also evil.
