I don't really care if its an ebook or a pbook. If I think a friend will like a book, I will lend it to him, sell it to him, or give it to him as a gift, just like I would with any other good under the sun.
The point is that it is obvious OK to lend a book but that possible deprives author of income so obviously it is OK to deprive an author of income. So rge "depriving" argument is not valid for copying an ebook and giving away.
