There's a GitHub project where one user's library card is now blocked on Libby after using the python program.

(Also, this forced tracking of reading progress seems contrary to most libraries' privacy policies, no?)
Well, I never officially listened to any of the audiobooks I borrowed before, either; they were downloaded to my PC and transferred to my mp3 player. I'm no doing anything I wasn't doing before; Libby has just made the download more difficult.
