    Curious, as someone who’s an actual author, do you have any legal option at all for preventing Amazon (which I assume technically act as your publisher in this case?) to pot DRM on your books, or demand them to remove DRM if they added DRM without your notice?

      Likely not, Amazon is a private market place and if their requirements to use it requires the drm his option is very likely use the drm or fuck off.

      Not having good publicly controlled legal market places is one of the biggest failings of the internet.
