    Would this be possible to do? Publishers would usually use different ISBNs for this, giving it all away, but apparently self-publishing is a thing

      Self publish, provide ocr-free pdfs (i.e. images where you can’t highlight the text) no epub or mobi because if you can extract the text, it would be easy to diff the text. And there are tools to ocr un ocr’d pdfs with varying degrees of error…maybe take up book binding and mail print bound books with beautiful artwork no one would want to deface…how much work you want to put into this joke?
