If I would lend a Kindle-book out: could anyone fool or experiment around with it? I mean, something like the equivalent of the above problem?

I understand your reasoning, but I like to lend paper books for exactly the reason you don't. I love seeing them beaten up and used...makes me think someone had a really intense reading experience. I've lent my copy of It's Not About the Bike out to over twenty people, read it several times myself, and the thing's practically falling apart. I love it!
You should be safe with ebook lending though. Probably no tears there.
