Kaufman's analogies are not only an insult to people who like electronic books, but almost all Europeans in one form or another, especially those who fought against or were subjugated to the fascist regimes of Hitler, Mussolini and Franco. What he also doesn't seem to grasp is that the internet and digital is inherently non-fascist, and it can never be as long as it's in the hands of 'we' the people and we the people copy and disseminate infomation freely to one another. You can't burn a digital book unless you give governments and corporations control of the net....something that the book producers (his oh so lauded guardians of culture) would love to see.
