A contract is just a standardized agreement. a lot of implicit agreements can result in unpleasant legal consequences for those who break them, such as shoplifting, dine and dash etc.
Thunderbolts will descend on my head I am sure, but if you want to share that ebook and expect approval do it the right way. Lend them your reader, sign them up to your account, find them a copy at their library. If you don't trust them with your reader or account and can't be bothered to look up the book for them, then recommend the book and they can get their own copy. The world will probably not end for them or for you.

This is probably a good point. My mom is on a long vacation. I sent her with my Kobo so she finally got to read <I>The Thousand Autumns of Jacob due Zoet</I> and loved it. I had bought a book club read, <We Need to Talk Abound Kevin</I>, :?P but she got to read it on the device while I read it with this app on my tablet. I have gotten used hardcovers from Amazon marketplace of books I really love/want to share but bought in eBook. I do also buy with and read on the Kindle app.
