My stars, he has never managed to purchase ebooks from a company that then decides to exit the ebook business. And then claims to have "really long years of experience".
As for criminal breach of the law? In Canada, the copyright act covers both civil and criminal copyright infringement. The phrase "
infringement that involves sale or rental of copyrighted materials" is what triggers the criminal end. Since you have felt free to call many of the posters on MobileRead criminals, it would appear that you must supply evidence that they are selling or renting copyright materials to support your claims. Either that or admit to be a criminal engaging in defamatory libel as per the Canadian Criminal Code section 298 (1). A quick search finds similar laws throughout most of the world.
