It’s bad if you like to keep ebook backup copies.

resist.
Stop buying whatever it is that Amazon/Meta/Google/Etc sell. They will not stand for you. They will not respect you.
At some points, it may seem like they changed and that they are now good. They are not. They will never be. Resist them.
I bought a Kindle so I can pirate all my books. Am I resisting?
You could have made a better choice, I suppose. And some authors/editors do deserve the money.
Pirating is not necessarily resisting. Are you taking money from authors who really really need it? Or are you taking money from rich CEOs who are worsening the environment, ruining future generations, slaving, etc?
Ya good point.
Seems like I'm doing it backwards lol
Giving money to Amazon for the hardware and then stealing from the authors.
I should do some more research before buying my next ebook reader.
Pirate the books, then donate the purchase price directly to the authors to bypass the middleman.
Whenever you want to buy a book, pirate it, then donate the amount equivalent to the purchase price directly to the authors. Bypass the middleman.
At least install KoReader before they find a way to firmware-lock the device.
Using calibre to just upload books directly.
I'll check out KoReader. Never heard of it.
Yeah, Calibre is the way to go. KoReader is basically custom built for Calibre, and includes things (missing from the base kindle firmware) like native metadata retrieval.
