My wife just received an email from the online retailer. She has been asked to “Not take any photographs or copies of the product in question due to copyright issues” and it states, “the product must be returned immediately by special delivery by [DATE].” There’s some other statements as well about our account being terminated if we fail to return the product by the specific date. We’ve got a lot of movies and series that we have purchased over the years on this account, I wouldn’t want to lose them.

They’ve stated that taking photos of the book will break a bunch of laws. They also stated that not promptly returning the book would may break some laws, and lead to the termination of my account.

Does the CEO of Totally-Not-Amazon know that his company is signing it’s name to stupid letters?
