Owning the rights to all the 2014 Fireworks is a big hit. Both New Years around Dec 31, 2013 and Jan 1, 2015 will be infringing, and other such event's just as Cinco de Mayo, Independence Day, et al.
In fact, the textbook publishers are constantly adding additional bells and whistles to their "online textbooks" (note the long list of additional software needed to use the curriculum) in order to avoid ever having to provide a stripped-down, downloadable version.
The point mentioned in this article is that they are intent on adding more features than just text. Perhaps now the 'textbook' can automatically flag those student who didn't do their homework online.
That's already happened so I wouldn't call it tinfoil hat territory.
And your point is correct, although your aim missed. People did trust the schools, and only in hindsight realize they shouldn't have. The point of being able to 'fix' the problem with tape does not coincide with your point of trusting the school.

"getting at least the text" is not a solution.
