Once upon a time, a long time ago...
... there was no online library on the internet only the library CD for PCs.
Then the Wachtower fairy came out of the bethel computer department and said: "You have a wish."
So the bethelites wished to have the library CD available on their apple devices.
And so the bethel computer department created the above linked (and other) files year after year, which enabled the library CD contents on an apple device with the commercial APP iSilo.
First the APP iSilo had to be installed on the Apple device, then the files had to be stored in iSilo. MAGIC.
And since Jehovah can't stand magic, fairies and wizards, the bethel computer department was given other tasks after 2013 and there were no more iSilo library files.
And if they haven't been erased, they're still alive today.

being born in to me was devastating.
when you are a child born in and raised with the they vs us and they are evil and worldly and going to die.
not allowed to form relationships with anyone not one of you.
I'm still a child playing with cars.
The cars just got bigger.
Being a born in JW, I haven't experienced any normal socialization. Even today, I have great problems entering into long-term relationships. Conditional love has been planted extremely deep into me - especially since I have never experienced real love myself from my parents and relatives.
Religion has made me a one-man fighter.
"everything we do in the truth is voluntary" ... something i heard many times.
does that include reporting ministry?.

From there website:
https://www.jw.org/en/jehovahs-witnesses/faq/how-many-jw-members/
Each month, Witnesses report their preaching activity to their local congregation. This report is made voluntarily.
i did not have any connection to jw's when they published this, about two weeks before i graduated from high school.
i'm now on medicare and collecting social security.
so much for their ability to see into the future.
Just like "flipper" I'll be 60 years old soon before the year is over, and I was born and raised in the JW cult as a third-generation JW.
I showed this Awake article to a young bethelite a few years ago. I showed him the original artkel from the bound volume.
I advised him with all my heart to think about how he would feel when he was as old as I am.
In the meantime he has left Bethel, completed a 3-year education and got married (no JW).
Although he is shunned by his JW family, he lives his life without the Watchtower.
@ JeffT
You write right: "most" of them....
However, since most people don't like to be lied to, articles like this 1969 Awake article might make one or the other JW think.
i won’t steal barb’s thunder, but has anyone had a chance to peruse the appeal that watchtower launched yesterday?.
watchtower’s main argument is that stuff was said in confidence with confidentiality surrounding that confidence and they are confident that clergy confidentiality which is in confidence is confidential.. in short, it ‘was a secret and should stay a secret.’.
omg.. and watchtower claims that this verdict “violates the constitution of the usa”.. i wish the jury could tack on another $50m and include watchtower lawyers are to be hanged.. i just had to say something.
@ Brighton
Great analysis. Respect.
i don't know how many are interested in watchtower history.
mom and bruce wrote this, and it received a new amazon review today.
here is the review of https://www.amazon.com/separate-identity-organizational-readers-1870-1887/dp/1304969401 .
In Germany you can order it here:

similar to that recent convention video, this illustrates a mother ignoring her disfellowshipped daughter's phone call.

The picture shows Jesus sitting on a throne with a sceptre at the top right. Is the writing department not aware that Jesus is not yet sitting on the throne? Unfortunately the ZJ have given up their thinking, even thinking about their own beliefs.
