Who is going to complain to Amazon for erasing ebooks they "found" on the internet?

It's just a theory.
It's a poor theory.
There are for a start maybe 1000s of Public Domain texts published on Amazon.
Also Amazon have sold ebooks that the 'publisher' didn't have the rights for.
They've already promised after the Orwell debacle never to remotely remove books they sold that subsequently they discovered they shouldn't. They are not going to deliberately remove other people's content no matter how obtained.
