In this case, all DP's Content Providers must be explicitly warned that ALL scans CAN be released to the public.
That's always been the assumption, as far as I know.
Some foreign legislation may allow people to scan a book and release it to DP (since it's a "closed" website), but may forbid them to allow those scans to be released to the general public.
DP lets anyone sign up and download the complete scans for a book. I wouldn't be too trusting that that would cover you under any legal system. Note that DP-EU is different; they don't let just anyone look at more pages then they need to proof, which they expect will cover them for offering US-cleared works from a life+50 server.
