Business agreements and legal contracts are the publisher's problem, not mine. I am not about to waive my basic right to be treated in the same way as everyone else just because some moron has penned the contract for digital distribution as if he's never heard of the Internet. What if you were refused service at your local hairdresser's because the agreement with the landlord says only whites/blacks/Americans are allowed on the premises, and you look suspiciously black/white/French? Nothing to do with personal rights, it's just that our contract does not allow us to serve blacks, sorry ma'am. How's that for an excuse?
