Google Books was earlier known as Google Book Search, Google Print etc. It started in the company Google (now Alphabet Inc.) by its code-name Project Ocean. Now, it is a well known service from Alphabet Inc. that searches the full text of books and magazines that Google has scanned, converted to text using optical character recognition (OCR), and stored in Google's digital database.

Books are provided either by publishers and authors through Google's program offering "Google Books Partner Program". Some books are also added by Google's library partners through another project known as "The Library Project". Additionally, Google has also partnered with a number of magazine publishers to digitize their books and magazines.

Now let us go through how to download books from Google Books.

Can You Download Any Title on Google Books for Free?

The very simple answer to this questions is - NO.

No, you cannot straight forward download Google Books for free. However, there are some tools and tricks available over Internet which claim to download Google Books for free.

Google Books allows users to preview some of the full pages from books in which the search terms appear if the book has no copyright registered. Or even if the book owner has given permission to Google to crawl the book for their search engine.

Google has categorized all he books in Google Books into these access levels:

Google Books Full view:

Books in this category are considered available for Public, and hence can be viewed or download fully. If some book is published by author or its owner and he has given permission for full view category to Google, then everyone can view or read or download this book.

Google Books Preview:

For this category, the book author or publisher can set the percentage of the book available for preview. Users cannot copy or download or print such book previews. A watermark is displayed in these books stating "Copyrighted material" at the center or the bottom of several pages. Mostly all the books Google Books get from their Partner Program are available under this category.

Google Books Snippet view:

In this category, two to three lines of text surrounding the search query are displayed in cases where Google does not have permission of the copyright owner to display a preview. As per Google's policy,  any permission is not required as per the copyright law in order to show the snippet view for these books.

Google Books No preview:

Google also displays search results for books that are yet to be digitized. These are the books that have not been scanned yet, the text written in these books is not available with Google. Google only has the metadata,such as Book name, Book author, Book publisher, pages, ISBN and other information.

If you are looking for any specific book, you can try out Google Books Advanced Search feature - https://books.google.com/advanced_book_search?hl=en

{Sarahah} How do I find out who sent me a message on Sarahah.com?

What is Sarahah App?

Sarahah helps people self-develop by receiving constructive anonymous feedback.” reads the apps description on Google Play Store. Interestingly, Sarahah means ‘honesty’ in Arabic, though this honesty is delivered anonymously. The app is available in English as well as Arabic for iOS and Android users.

How does Sarahah App works?

Sarahah App can be used to fool your friends, confess something to someone and then share those feedback on Social media platforms.. If you're an Android user, you can get the Sarahah App on Google Play Store, iOS users can download Sarahah App from App Store. On installing the Sarahah App, you now need to register with email ID, password, and username. After creating an account with the Sarahah app, you can directly share the link to your Sarahah profile with Facebook, Twitter, or any other social media platform, so that your friends can submit the feedback on your profile. When your friends submit the feedback, all you'll need to do is get to see the message sent by your friends. There'll be no name, no information about the sender anywhere in the App or the Message. Similarly, you can also send messages to your friends. You can only receive the message and can't reply to in anyway. However, it seems Sarahah App will get that feature soon, as the websites state, "You can't respond to messages now. We are studying this option."

How do I find out who sent me a message on Sarahah.com?

So, now the question is.. How do I find out who sent me a message on Sarahah.com? The Answer right now is 'NO!', but you can try something else.

There is a sneaky trick you could use to find out what your friends really think of you while still knowing who they are on Sarahah App. This is not a method to find out the identity of someone who had recently sent you a message. This is a slightly twisted alternative to find out what a particular someone thinks of you. For this, we’ll create multiple Sarahah profiles, one for each person whose honest feedback we want to know. Instead of posting this link on FB or other public social platforms, we’ll be sending one particular profile link to only one person.

Create a new Sarahah account at sarahah.com. Enter a fake email address for registration purposes.
Sarahah does not confirm email addresses.
Enter a unique username. If your name is James Walker, try a username that goes like this ‘jameswalker001’. So your unique Sarahah profile link would be jameswalker001.sarahah.com

How do I find out who sent me a message on Sarahah.com?
How do I find out who sent me a message on Sarahah.com?
Although the Photo is option, but you can upload it to make the account more credible. Now, send this profile link to one particular friend, just one friend.. over E-mail/Messenger/WhatsApp/SMS or whatever means with a note that reads, "Hi friends, would love to know what you’ve got to say about me. Message me on Sarahah at jameswalker001.sarahah.com." This friend will think you’re broadcasting the message (and the link) to all your friends, when, in fact, he/she is the only person receiving the link. When you have received a message on that particular account, you would know how that friend truly feels about you.

To find out what another friend has to say about you, create another account with a fake email. Enter a different username, like jameswalker002.sarahah.com Send your profile link with the same message as the previous one. This way, you can find out exactly what all of your closest friends think of you. You can log in to any of these accounts using your username and password every time. You could use the same password on all of these accounts. You could use a sequence of numbers after your username to make it unique and maintain a good order.

What the DMCA is and how it affects the Internet ?

DMCA stands for Digital Millennium Contract Act which is a law passed by United States in 1998 in an attempt to modernize copyright law to deal with the World Wide Web. The  Digital Millennium Contract Act (DMCA) has a large number of provisions, but here we shall be focusing on the ones that are affecting the Internet we are having today.


Safe Harbor & Takedown Notices by DMCA :

The Digital Millennium Contract Act (DMCA)extends a safe harbor to service providers defined as a provider of online services or network access, or the operator of facilities therefore. Let us take an example, if one uploads a copyrighted video to YouTube.com or posts a copyrighted article on Tumblr.com or places a copyrighted file on Dropbox and shares the link to the same publicly, or just hosts a copyright-infringing website with any web hosting provider, the provider of the service — YouTube, Tumblr, Dropbox, or the web host is exempt from liability. Hence, we can say that, the DMCA provides protections to the websites like YouTube.com, in a way to prevent them from being sued just because they are hosting copyrighted content which is being uploaded by a user to them.
To actually be eligible for this exemption, the service provider must meet a some conditions.it.
Anyone can file a DMCA takedown notice, which is an official notice to a service provider by DMCA. The notice identifies content being hosted by a service and states that they are violating the Digital Millennium Contract Act (DMCA).
If your content is taken down due to a Digital Millennium Contract Act notice, the online-service provider will alert you to this after taking down the content from your website. In cases where a DMCA notice is filed against your content, you have the ability to file a counter-notice too. This counter notice is a notice sent to the Service provider where it is stated that a mistake was made and there is no copyrighted content. If the person who has filed the takedown notice takes no further action (e.g. requesting an injunction in the court), then the article/content taken down can be restored after ten business days.
It should be noted that the Digital Millennium Contract Act (DMCA) is a law made by United States along with some online service providers located in other countries and is under no obligation to honor such takedown notices.
