I was thinking as did BurkeanMama how apt they violated ownership by starting with 1984 in the first year of AMSOC.

It makes one wonder if Big Brother is staring back at you from the Kindle’s display. Hmmm? I am typing this on my Blackberry Curve 8320 – a Canadian product under CANSOC – there’s a trace of a face on the display. Oh wait that is my reflection…I think.

Justin Gawronski, a 17-year-old from the Detroit area, was reading “1984” on his Kindle for a summer assignment and lost all his notes and annotations when the file vanished. “They didn’t just take a book back, they stole my work,” he said.

It may not seem like much, but this is a definite criminal act on their part. I doubt the student will be pursuing this, but it would be a great precedent setting case if he would.
