I bought a book on my Kindle — a thing I have done many times before. I exchanged money for goods, as one is supposed to do in a capitalist society. Then this happened.

I wonder what response Jeff Bezos expects. Does he think I will buy a new Kindle? Of course I won't. I'll just pirate the book THAT I HAVE ALREADY PAID FOR.

And once I've learned how to pirate books, well, who knows what will happen next?
