In the "good old socialistic era" only big companies had copiers and [later] faxes here in my country. If you wanted to have a few pages copied for a project documentation you had to go through complicated process of collecting permissions to make a copy. Only trustworthy party members were allowed to operate copying machines and they were closely monitored.
In Soviet Union every single typewriter was registered and every typewriter owner had to provide a sample of the text typed on machine for tracing of hand typed "illegal" books - called samizdat(s)
