I would say that what they do is encourage a trade-free sharing of physical books. The issue is that their main tools that they use for this are trade-based as mentioned in a previous review. And since that’s their main interface between people and them getting those books, then it should “barely” be included in this directory. They should use trade-free tools, else the people who use their website have to trade their data to Google and the like, in order to provide these books as trade-free.

It is such a shame that google analytics is being used on that website. Google is the biggest data collection machine in the world that then sells that data to advertisers. We don’t know if that’s intentionally or not, but it could be changed to Matomo for example (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matomo_(software)).

Plus, they are using google maps for their bookmap: https://www.bookcrossing.com/bookmap – that could be changed to openstreetmap for example.

Njengoba ukuhweba okukhululekile kusho ukungabi nalutho kwanoma yiluphi uhlobo lohwebo, le sevisi ingase ifakwe esigabeni esinqatshiwe okwamanje. Uma ama-tracker azosuswa, angase afakwe ohlwini lapha.
