@Mistyfarm. You are clearly not a lawyer. In many, perhaps most situations this would be a cause for celebration. But not when it comes to interpreting terms and conditions. You are simply wrong and scaremongering.
Of course Amazon is in business and wants to make money. This is a given that underlies all of its transactions. This doesn't change the point that the license you are granted is to read the books, which you are clearly not doing.
And please cut out the ocker Ozzie act. It is not at all averting attention from the real issues. You have still not given any indication of the number of books you "borrowed" from KU, nor details of what you were doing and why you were doing it. You have not posted any chat transcripts or support tickets, even redacted ones. Every defence of Amazon is not "taking bullets" for them. In the case of your complaint it is more like taking a wet blanket. Amazon is by no means perfect and does make mistakes. It does need to do some work on its communications once its anti-fraud type measures take effect. But from the information you have posted so far its actions in your case seem to be perfectly justified. I for one have no sympathy for what amounts to whingeing on your part.
