R eminder: this list is largely culled from taking a look at my 500+ feeds in Fever ’s Hot section for the past week. Amazon wirelessly removed Kindle Editions of George Orwell books from people’s Kindles . The entire internet exploded in alarmist uproar, as it is wont to do, and Amazon issued a statement noting that it would never do this again. Although I’m anti-DRM and I like where Amazon ended this issue, I wasn’t very happy watching it unfold, not because of Amazon, but because of how everyone reacted.
