+"You can't even be sure it will still be in your machine tomorrow. People "
+"reading 1984 in the “Kindle” had an Orwellian experience: their "
+"e-books vanished right before their eyes, as Amazon used a malicious "
+"software feature called a “back door” to remotely delete them "
+"(virtual book-burning; is that what “Kindle” means?). But don't "
+"worry, Amazon promised never to do this again, except by order of the state."

+"With software, either the users control the program (making such software <a "
+"href=\"/philosophy/free-sw.html\"> Libre or Free</a>) or the program "
+"controls its users (non-Libre). Amazon's e-book policies imitate the "
+"distribution policies of non-Libre software, but that's not the only "
+"relationship between the two. The malicious software features described "
+"above are imposed on users via software that's not Libre. If a Libre program "
+"had malicious features like those, some users skilled at programming would "
+"remove them, then provide the corrected version to all the other "
+"users. Users can't change non-Libre software, which makes it <a "

+"It doesn't have to be that way. With anonymous payment on the Internet, "
+"paying for downloads of non-DRM non-EULA e-books would respect our "
+"freedom. Physical stores could sell such e-books for cash, like digital "
+"music on CDs—still available even though the music industry is "
+"aggressively pushing DRM-restrictive services such as Spotify. Physical CD "
+"stores face the burden of an expensive inventory, but physical e-book stores "
+"could write copies onto your USB memory stick, the only inventory being "
+"memory sticks to sell if you need."

+"The reason publishers give for their restrictive e-books practices is to "
+"stop people from sharing copies. They say this is for the sake of the "
+"authors; but even if it did serve the authors' interests (which for quite "
+"famous authors it may), it could not justify DRM, EULAs or the Digital "
+"Economy Act which persecutes readers for sharing. In practice, the "
+"copyright system does a bad job of supporting authors aside from the most "
+"popular ones. Other authors' principal interest is to be better known, so "
+"sharing their work benefits them as well as readers. Why not switch to a "
+"system that does the job better and is compatible with sharing?"

+"A tax on memories and Internet connectivity, along the general lines of what "
+"most EU countries do, could do the job well if three points are got "
+"right. The money should be collected by the state and distributed according "
+"to law, not given to a private collecting society; it should be divided "
+"among all authors, and we mustnât let companies take any of it from them; "
+"and the distribution of money should be based on a sliding scale, not in "
+"linear proportion to popularity. I suggest using the cube root of each "
+"author's popularity: if A is eight times as popular as B, A gets twice B's "
+"amount (not eight times B's amount). This would support many fairly popular "
+"writers adequately instead of making a few stars richer."

+"Sharing is good, and with digital technology, sharing is easy. (I mean "

+"decrease, we must demand the increase."
