[WEB4LIB] taking prisoners in the e-book war

[Dan Lester]

This is the same kind of nonsense that says guns should be illegal
because you might use one to kill someone.  It isn't the tool that is
the problem, but the person using it, and the choices s/he makes in
how, when, where, and why to use it.
