points on an interesting story in which the writer Rebecca Blain said what a complete fucking disappointment

it is to get an ebook ( legitimately) and then having to dump a massive threat of copyright that you are supposed to be a thief. Think of it as the equivalent of the FBI warning stupid, boring and useless at the beginning of the film:

So I left. It was a good night and took a few minutes before bedtime. I pull the Kindle, type in a year that Elvis died of minors, and start reading. Well, I tried. We found a number of pages of legal threats that tell me how much they have continued if he had the audacity to put that book more than one device I own. God forbid, if I lend it to anyone. The amount of the offense does not have two, three, or four zeros. Try five or six. I do not remember the exact amount, but I remember the shock and the complete inability of the average person is able to pay that sum. I will not open my Kindle to find. It made me mad enough even have to write it.

After reading the book, I can say with some confidence that the book of this author is not worth four or five digits for me, let alone six years. If I bought this book, instead of being presented to the CRA of an examiner, (after it was published, it was exactly the same content from a principal player) I sure I would have asked for a refund without having read the book, and he did not pay to be threatened.

then followed with a post that really understands the copyright with another random selection of ads. First, here is a fragment of the copyright notice which led to the original blog entry, the book
