They have indeed, and for all of those decades nothing has prevented individuals from buying books from stores located in other countries, as up until the past year nothing prevented individuals from buying e-books from stores located in other countries - the point of sale was defined by the location of the seller, not the format of the book. Trying to hand-wave that away is disingenuous at best.
