Ok, I'll try to be clearer......

Some people complain about Amazon infringing their rights by doing something that may or may not be legal(Ayn Rand and Orwell incidents)........

While at the same time in other unrelated instances...........

Happily go about infringing upon the rights of others by acquring copyrighted works by other authors without paying for them.

I am not saying they infringed Orwell or Rand. I am not saying they did anything "bad" in this instance. They have, however, advocated, in other instances, doing something essentially the same as Amazon did in this instance.

Clearer now?

Cheers,
