It's also highly questionable whether Amazon can take away fair use rights in a contract clause.

Once again, we agree fundamentally but differ in the belief that the laws are currently structured as such e.g.,
EULA violation leading to copyright infringement. I don't think it's a huge leap to read the Kindle ToS (stating that you only own a license to the work, not the work itself) in light of that decision to reach that conclusion.
