3 and 5 are… interesting choices

Absolutely! That’s why I think Amazon’s new policy is going to be counterproductive. Not letting people access the files of books they bought is not the way to go, and it will also affect them financially bc people will buy them elsewhere. But well, Amazon obviously doesn’t care about that

Okay. I do want to clarify that, as long as someone is able, they should 100% support artists they like, but that is sadly not the reality for everyone

yeah absolutely i’m all for being able to sideload books, i was suggesting that maybe that person thought that by desabling sideloading amazon would prevent piracy

culture is unrealistic, i’m sorry.

i do think that those who can should support artists/writers but i also strongly believe that people without disposable income deserve to enjoy things and educate themselves, even if that involves pirating. sue me

and i’m going to say something that may be controversial, but if pirating is what it takes for someone to educate themselves and read more, then so be it.

lots of books are simply not available physically in many countries + most ebooks are NOT cheap at all. expecting people to simply not access +

like i wanted to subscribe to jake’s so bad

like they’re basically all from when twt was banned on brazil and they just became inactive once the ban got lifted
