Kindle 2, redux

“Just a little shy of two months ago”:http://tendentious.org/2009/02/if-it-werent-for-the-drm.html, I noted that I really, really liked the looks of the Kindle 2, etc., but that I simply could not in good faith allow someone else to hold my content hostage via DRM.

No doubt people scoffed at the possibility. Two months later, “it happened to someone”:http://consumerist.com/5213774/amazon-can-ban-you-from-your-kindle-account-whenever-it-likes.

And I’m sure as hell never buying one.
