It’s bad if you like to keep ebook backup copies.

    Looks like Z-Library continues to be the winning option.

    Considering Amazon is an American company, as a Canadian I currently have no qualms ignoring IP or rights holdings of an organization that supports a fascist takeover of my country.

    So I sent this to my parents, as they’ve spent hundreds, if not thousands on their Kindle books.

    They don’t really care. Zero interest in DRM-free backups that I can make them. They don’t think it’s an issue. They trust Amazon to not mess with their books, and that they’ll always have access to wifi and kindles.

      And I suppose they also trust none of their books will be removed by amazon, despite evidence in contrary that Amazon sometimes does that.

        Indeed.

        I even sent them the related news articles about content I’ve had removed from my own devices, and still they don’t seem to care in the least.
