Outside the field of media, I've listened with amused alarm as a priest has attempted to remove obstacles to the True Faith, in a different way for different people. He invented a most bizarre theology for one rather feminist lady, playing down Eve's role in the Garden of Eden and discovering some "supressed" female writers who SHOULD have been included in the Old Testament. It didn't work :-)

Interesting to read about the priest if you have a link. I don't doubt you and lots of things I read I forget where I read them, but sounds like an interesting story.
I am sure that someone or many someones, somewhere, are altering ebooks, songs etc. for either amusement, spitefulness, or some deep nefarious purpose.
I just don't see it as doing them much good, or me anyway much harm.Lot of unaltered ebooks with disinformation and some have been written with bad intent I am sure.
I am no more or no less likely to be harmed by an altered ebook than an unaltered one, that I can see whether fiction or non fiction.
Then again, perhaps I have already had my mind altered and am too simple to realize it.
