I used to try this with my physical book collection and IT JUST NEVER WORKED. In our day and age, this is completely unreasonable. I should be able to carry my 5,000 strong library with me EVERYWHERE. I never read a book a second time... but still! (/sarcasm )

You mean other devious methods like an USB cable?! Which you will still be able to use without problems (assuming you have a computer, obviously).

And to prove how good of a job they are doing with their nefarious mind-control methods (Bezos you evil genius!) I shall name all of my children and pets in the following Amazon inspired manner:

Matt's 1st Child
Matt's 2nd Child
Matt's 3rd Child

and the pets shall be:

Matt's 1st Pet
Matt's 2nd Pet
Matt's 3rd Pet

Brilliant!

And they all have to wear attire suitable only for the Amazon and nowhere else. And they must all constantly SMILE! That is how thorough the control is! It's crazy!
