Amazon tactical growth: e-magazines

lundi 18 septembre 2023 à 15:46

Amazon has used its near-monopoly power to force e-magazines out of operation or under its exclusive monopoly.

This is clearly an injustice. However, the article does not take notice of the context — based totally on injustice, because these magazines were distributed for the Amazon Swindle.

Amazon identified each reader — an injustice — and, I suspect made them sign contracts not to share copies — another injustice. They may have had DRM — also an injustice.

Within this unjust context, Amazon's treatment of those magazines was wrong. But the injustice of the Amazon Swindle is a far bigger wrong.
