    The past we know is a carefully crafted and curated story and not at all accurate as it is. It is valuable to learn and understand but also be skeptical. I don’t really think wide spread forgery changes that. Historiography is a very important field.

    Any serious historical research will have to verify the physical copies exist or existed in a documented way to be admitted as evidence. This is called chain of custody and is already required.

    I have a brother laser printer that I love. I just fill up a tub with generic toner and it keeps printing for almost a decade now. I’m old and like to print things. I think it’s much easier to read on paper and I’m happier to print out a 150 page book than read it on a Kindle lol. I’ve also broken multiple ereaders commuting on trains but still have all the papers I saved in binders I printed and really enjoyed reading and will last nearly forever.
