If Amazon agreed with you? Well, they'd change their system. But they haven't, they've simply added a flag for reviews where someone did buy the book through them.

Simply because you think that taking corporate restrictions at face value... well, it's bluntly laughable. You're directly arguing in favour of helping the darknets, who will be the only beneficiaries if they did adopt your proposal.

Give it up and move on, because you're deliberately hurting the market. THAT is childish.
email the publishers and tell them why you won't be buying their book. That will have more effect then a 1 star at Amazon.
