Over on Good e-Reader, Michael Kozlowski has been busy writing some articles about ebook pirates:
Last year the ebook piracy industry cost American publishers $300 million

Pirating ebooks is an offence against moral justice

In the article from April, Michael offers his reflections on the moral depravity of ebook pirates:
Quote:

I believe that ebook piracy is morally reprehensible. You would not walk into a bookstore or secondhand bookstore and steal a book, because you do not want to pay for it or cannot afford to buy it. The same goes with digital, stealing is stealing. You are fundamentally an amoral person if you engage in theft.

Curiously, he neglected to mention the ebook piracy which seems to have been previously associated with his own website as documented here:
GoodEreader.com – Still Pirates, but Now Also Fibbers

and here:

At least, he now seems to recognize that he is an amoral person... And that is something which I can finally agree with him on.
