They most certainly could. It would be quite an undertaking to monitor, though. I wonder if it would be worthwhile for them. Is there enough of an upside to outweigh the expense and potential business impact from busting people? I'm wondering how much the Kindle's audience even intersects with the torrent-downloading crowd.
