I was thinking of the Norwegian lady who, in 2012, had her kindle wiped and account closed, rather than the understandable Orwell removal. That incident highlighted the problem with the concept of ownership denied/enforced through DRM and the common man's understanding of the ownership of, say, a material book.
The link in my mind was the cross border aspect, combined with Amazon's rumoured arbitrary account policing.
Perhaps unfair of me.
