Never attribute to malice what can be explained by stupidity  |
Even if Mobile Reference erred when contacting Amazon, Amazon should be wise enough to know what to do, especially considering the huge publicity they had with the Ayn Rand pull. Surely someone could have been contacted to spend a few minutes to look up PD laws and who had rights.
Instead they jump the gun and do the same thing they did with the illegal Ayn Rand book.
I don't fault MobiRef, but i DO fault Amazon.
