Amazon screws up twice: 1- for not having proper controls in place to ensure that only properly licensed material is uploaded to the Kindle Store, and 2- by failing to design controls in the their digital content distribution system to enforce their legal obligations: apparently when a Kindle book is removed from the central database, all copies of that book out on Kindle user’s devices were also deleted. It was either a lack of system controls or over-reacting by Amazon management. This likely violates their own Terms of Service with Kindle users.
