Not everyone believes that a unilateral demand constitutes an agreement.
I don't entirely disagree with you - their ability to change rules when they feel like it is something that could be argued to discount their validity. OTOH I think the main point still stands that people do have choices. They don't have to buy ebooks, paper books still exist. Buying and then breaking makes no statement at all (except a poor one about your ability to keep your word), not buying because you don't like their terms makes a statement.
