First comment: this appears to be a direct copy of a copyrighted book (1987) by Chen Zude. The link should therefore be removed.

This is generated by Go Eye, the greatest IOS app, from the online SGF file at flygo.net

The comments may from the Prof Player Chen, but the SGF file at flygo.net should be legal (Don't know if they have agreement though).

Even if the SGF file at flygo.net is allowed/legal to be there, that does not mean that it can be shared elsewhere. I have no knowledge of the language, so I can't confirm, but if someone confirms that this is a copy of a copyrighted book, use the report button to notify the admins.

That doesn't mean that it cannot be shared here too.
Yes it does.

Posts requesting for anything illegal or copyrighted are not allowed. Links to sites that host warez or torrents for illegal content will be removed at once.
If the sgf was taken from a book, the comments belong to the original author, not to the site. Transforming those comments back into book form, without permission, can't be said to be legal, due to current copyright laws.
Since the forum rules don't allow links to illegal content, that means that you can't share anything copyright protected here, unless the author specifically authorized that use.

I'm not sure what exactly is the case here, but if what you posted is copyright protected, the link will eventually be removed.

Page 1 of the book as shown on the site is an exact copy of the printed book, of which I have a copy. To see and verify the rest of the book you need to sign in and download, which I am not prepared to do. Last time I looked there was nothing on the flygo site to suggest they have permission for anything copyrighted posted there but IANAL.
