This eerily reminds of books burning.
It's more like if a landlord canceled the leases on a bunch of properties that a chain of privately owned libraries was renting.
"keep your books but you can't keep them here" in a way.
Well, the files are intact, it's "just" registrar douchiness. Not that that makes it good, by any stretch, but it's not all Alexandria either
Book burning bad, literally Roman style war crimes...
