As illegal as mugging is, the law don't do, to paraphrase Ned Flanders, diddly squiddly for you when you are at the receiving end of a gun. Only after the fact and if the mugger is caught. In your example, I'm not sure laws will be very helpful if Amazon defaults and their servers are no longer maintained. That is not to demean your righteousness nor your rage, I was there and I completely get it, I just think it is an unfortunate fact that electrons can't be caught only temporarily stored. Lawmakers are always behind the technological curve, in this case as in so many others.
