What happened to all the high res scans of the ~500,000 books removed from archive.org? (old.reddit.com)

This is an automated archive made by the Lemmit Bot.

The original was posted on /r/piracy by /u/aPir8 on 2025-04-03 15:06:40+00:00.

I used to use MZCacheView to grab the high res jpeg's of each page, then save them all to a PDF. I know the books are mainly on e.g. annas-archive, but the quality is usually shocking.

Is there any way to still be able to get at the originals? Have they leaked anywhere or was there a r/Datahoarder call to arms to grab them?
