      Yes, but it’s purpose is for obfuscation and preservation. A minecraft world is much easier to share around and hide than the more traditional pdf/torrent methods.

        I could be wrong about this specific instance but generally when you include a book in a MC world the text will appear in the game files as plaintext, so you’d get more obfuscation by using e.g. a password protected zip volume

          I was thinking more along the lines of it being present within an unorthodox file type. A Minecraft world is more inconspicuous than the usual ways of storing text.
