The user has the title "Fanatic" right under their username, which seems quite apt under the circumstances. Not even the "Bibliophagist" here has had books vanish on them after use.
Personally, I believe that we are witnessing a form of trolling aiming to make us set sail on the seven seas, as it were.
I already find it hard to justify buying ebooks, what with the license shenanigans and other limitations and being treated like a criminal once I do. And sometimes it's straight out impossible to buy a book. I recently tried to buy a German graded reader that was being offered on several platforms, all of which were geolocked and refused to sell outside of a certain country. Not even contacting the author directly helped in that case.
It's inconceivable to me that someone would defend blatant anti-consumerism by multibillion dollar companies with such vigour. So either it's a form of modern art or entertainment or some duplicitous recruiting scheme by the pirates.
