Happy digital world: switching off your books

[Skybird]

Its worth to note that Amazon in the past years has remote-targeted individual Kindle devices as well and deleted content on them. In their fine-print, their rules say that if you use a Kindle from one continental trade zone in another to access any Amazon shop there, you forfeit any rights in both zones and that they can cancel your account then and you go void on all content you ever bought. That was what i have read several years ago at least, and it was done this way indeed. Not often, but it was done.



Also, in even fewer cases, politically unwanted books or content of disputed legal status also was remote-deleted on customer's Kindle devices, in a variety of Western countries, including the US and Germany.



Neither digital life and digital home nor big data accept just small offerings and just small sacrifices - they want it all and want to maximise your exposition to their mercy. Mercy translates into: their interest over yours.
