Well this is interesting, let us imagine that I copy a number of different books but leave the attribution pages out, If I then leave these copies laying around somewhere would it be considered infringement if another picks them up and reads them?
If this other who picks these non attributable copies up also copies these books, is that infringing?
It sounds a bit absurd to me, which might mean that copyright is absurd.
