Like I said, nobody can "take" your ebook unless you consciously make it available (ie give permission). Your analogy doesn't work. It would need to be someone replicating the ebook manufacturer's design and handing them out for free, not just an owner's ebook reader. That's why I said it is pointless trying to force real world items into analogies about copyright violation. Even if Star Trek replicators were real it still wouldn't fit.
