[oriolesfan61]

Amazon HAD TO DELETE THE BOOK they had no legal choice.

the dude on the left annoyed me with his comments. he kept steering the conversation in a useless direction and had nothing to contribute to this.

[Blaze00069]

Another reason to why Kindle is fail

[TheMushroomMenace]

kinda need some help. i pre-ordered black ops a month ago from amazon and it isnt dispatched yet, but the delivery date still says 9th November, i got first class delivery and thats it. someone explain to me when im gonna get it

[stumrektun]

Is that a bottle of jack i see on the table? :)

[TheOesDude]

amazon takes SO frikin long to ship

[mattmax11]

i think the kid should sue and by the way how do you know if it was a just a test because he could be doing the test to graduate from highschool

[LionCome]

Amazon took Max Igan's ebook Earth's Forbidden Secrets that Max gave for free to the public and are selling it for 11.95 without his permission. Amazon is creepy to take Max's work like that.

[Shadowplight]

@LionCome sought of go's against what Max believes in too.

[pulloutsange]

Amazon.com is a corrupt organization any how. People who think this kid is wrong is because they do not know anything about this company. These guys are ignorant and do not know anything about constitutional rights.

[falken76]

This is stupid, how much compensation is this kid seeking for his homework on 1984? If Amazon is forced to pay for this bullshit, I hope they pay him out at prison wage for only 5 hours.

[owenowen]

What a bunch of queer-baits..

[resfalgio]

Amazon.com is a kind of dirty monopoly mafia, beware with amazon.com!!!!!!

[comsa42]

this brings up another question, would you sue someone if they sued you and you lost all of you money and can't afford anything. thumbs up if you wont sue, and thumbs down if you will

[hobojoeisme]

Do you like free stuff? Use swagbucks! It is a search engine like google or yahoo, except you get rewarded with it. You can redeem Amazon gift cards!

It is a search engine that uses google i will give you an online bot so you can earn them faster. I will give 3 $5.00 amazon gift card at random to referrals and 5 $5.00 gift cards to the highest earner every month. If you don't want gift cards you can get a ps3 xbox video games clothing ect. you have nothing to lose pm me with email for sign up link.

[seroyer2]

Oh the Irony Amazon!!!, why of all the books you could do this to, did i have to be 1984. "the kindle now with NEWSPEAK."

[praxis321]

I think that Amazon shouldn't do that. This shows that any big corporation is able to do what ever they want with you. Now, this kid how was he suppose to download his notes in order to do a report? If he is able, then why didn't he made backups? It is ironic that in a country like USA anyone can sue anyone for any stupid reason.

On other hand, I also think that you guys DiggNation should not drink while filming. That's poor ethics.

[01cmather]

It's not poor ethics, it's two guys entertaining viewers and enjoying a few beers.

[fashnek]

Ironic?

Ethics?

[TerranRepublic]

The kid should get over it with a lesson well learned. You should always make back-ups of digital files and he definitely definitely should not be suing.

And these guys are idiots, the Steam example was self-refuting. If someone buys an illegal copy of a game from a company and the company realizes that it has been selling illegal copies and does right by recollecting the game and refunding their customers, I see absolutely nothing wrong with that. No one's at a loss. I hate these guys.

[fashnek]

With the Steam example, just like with this one, the issue would be losing saved data so that even if you were to buy a legal version of the game, you lost all your personal data (progress, settings, achievements, etc.) when you technically did nothing wrong at all.

Think of it more like Microsoft taking back your illegal copy of Word -- and deleting all of the Word documents you ever created.

This ignores the other cost of having your book taken back, which is time, simplicity, and so on.

[johnleo003]

Does anyone see the irony in that the book that was taken was 1984? I laughed really really hard. I mean, I got the mental image of big brother looking through the kindle...

[bloodierfish]

the example with steam is very possible because the company who sold the first three fallouts didn't get Bethesda's approval so they didnt have a license

[ezname1234]

lol its like you buy a part for your car and later on the company found out its illegal so they decided to sneak to your house at night and uninstall it. and this is why i would never get a kindle. my itouch is good enough to write down notes

[fashnek]

If you think you truly own the book to do what you want with it, then why can you only use it on a few specific devices, and you have to authorize its use on those devices?

You cannot compare a car part to a Kindle book. Traditional rules DO NOT APPLY with DRM. I really want the world to understand this -- the sooner they do, the sooner we can resolve the wacky lobbying/policies going on right now and recently.

[ezname1234]

that the idea im trying to get at, you buy the book but you dont truly own it?? if the transaction is made you should be able to do what you want with it

[fashnek]

That's great, but it doesn't matter. You are assuming a different product. It's like if I said "if I am going to pay $25,000 for a car then it should be able to fly." What you WANT is not what's offered.

You can always buy a book in a more familiar way. If you don't agree with the way the Kindle works, then please, don't use it. I don't.

Issues like these can't always be helped -- such is the world of digital media and DRM. You can't just make infinite instant copies of a paper book.

[daspand]

He should sue them, not because its a small thing, but the fact that they sneaked into his/her kindle and removed the books. Regardless of wht he had on there, Amazon or any1 for that matter has no right to sneak into someones personal belongings.

[fashnek]

Amazon "sneaks in" daily -- that's how the thing works. Anyway, have you ever heard the phrases Terms of Service or End User License Agreement? They can do anything they want if you have agreed to it.

[daspand]

Yes i am aware of those. But, that does NOT give them the right to sneak into your personal belongings. They don't say that its perfectly legitimate for them to screw with ur personal belongings. U might be comfortable with that, but most of us certainly aren't.

[fashnek]

Not really your personal belongings in the traditional sense though. That's where the logic fails and what people don't seem to understand. If they read the terms of service people would better understand the relationship between users, Amazon, the Kindle, and purchased content.

[greenstringbean2009]

I find it ironic that this happened to the book "1984"

[LosPigg]

what are the laptops for?

this show is ridiculous.

[InnocentCruelty]

It's called reading the articles on Digg. That's why the show is called DIGGNATION.

[nazdun]

"What the fuck are you renting a book for..?"...ummm it's called a Library? :P

[unfreez]

Haha, he sounded kinda stupid when he said that

[ronknights]

You guys sit there, drinking booze, and swear a lot.

You don't even know how to talk properly.

I'm amazed that you have sponsors.

[survivor303]

start watch these shows from begin. then you understand =)

[bloodcrest007]

They are in Vegas... wtf do u expect...

[Chickennrice02]

Love it

[upallhours9]

Amazon should have been responsible enough to prevent un-authorized, or illegal media on their site.

Ergo, the work the student produced was not valid.

Amazon should have notified the student before pulling the book.

They were all wrong.

[fashnek]

This logic is uncommon and unpopular -- see the codified "take down" process in DMCA law. Just as YouTube does not have the capacity to make sure everything on it is free of copyright violation, Amazon can't help it if a trusted publisher turns out to be illegitimate.

[daspand]

Ahaha lol he won the case and rightly so.. see i was right...

[madmanmcclinton]

hahaha that made me laugh already i am a prime member *beep* lmao

[Airportchris2]

Tell that to the kid when he get's a zero on it.

[Airportchris2]

I would sue to, delete my notes, take the book away, but also deleted my notes on the book, I would sue to, however not for some ungodly amount.

[66night]

LOL ahhah idiots homework on amazon wtf
