While I don't technically disagree, I don't see the value in blaming an amorphous nameless mass of people who are probably doing their best to get by and are facing a serious Tragedy of the Commons.
Amazon is not in the position of having to choose between sacrificing their morals and feeding their small children with this exclusivity move. Amazon is also a business in a way that most indie authors are not, and therefore I feel should be subject to tighter government oversight.
