I don't "attack" the OP of that thread. I'm attacking your argumentation. The difference being that when buying an ebookreader, no matter how he/she got it, to begin complaining about not being able to download freebies from a certain supplier because they haven't set up their business to cater to her specific situation is just tough luck.
Having you grasping hold of that and running with it, crying "discrimination" and comparing it to third world contries, racism, hunger and what have is what is attacked here.

"But I would not tell you if I where?" Nice, but only helps my argument,
Actually, that was a bait. I wanted to see if the paranoid notion that it ws old timers ganging up on newbies was indeed paranoid or what.
You took the bait, and it seems paranoia won.

But then again, just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they're not after you (or something to that effect).

LOL, seriously, though, no, I'm not one of the old guards. I'm as new as my nick will tell you as I just recently bought my very first Ereader.

Title of the thread was apologized for.
Wasn't that apology a bit like "Well, I have nothing against, but I don't like you?".

The only disagreement is that people attacked the new poster,
Boy, have you missed a lot of that thread if that's what you got away from it with!

Quote:
and mentioning the consumer protection laws and credit cards outside the US is relevant given that Amzaon is a global company.
Yes, it can be relevant, if the context had been slightly different.

Thanks for reading the previous post. Keep up the good work. We are after all on MobileRead
