Honestly, I've lost a bit of confidence in the Internet Archive project's judgement and long term stability, given the risk they took in distributing books during Covid-19. I feel that they risked the entire project with massive (almost certainly fatal) copyright violation fines in order to distribute extra copies of books. That lawsuit is still pending and we don't know what the outcome of that lawsuit will be.
If they're willing to risk everything they've accomplished to date in order to issue a few extra copies of books, I don't see them surviving long term, nor do I feel comfortable donating to the project.
