George Orwell books erased from Amazon's Kindle.

This past Friday, two George Orwell books, "1984" and "Animal Farm" were erased from some owners' Kindle by Amazon without prior notice and explanation. It was only after a storm of protests Online that the Internet retailer came up with an explanation to what happened: "Those downloaded editions were from an illegal source."
Fair warning to all bootleg lovers: The next time you purchase an illegal copy of an hot item on the site, Amazon will break into your place and take it back.
