Description
Columnist Michael Coren loved his Kindle. Then he found out what it was doing behind his back.
Amazon, like many e-book publishers and device makers, can delete books from your device, edit what you already bought, and track every page you turn. In 2009, Amazon removed 1984, George Orwell's book about a dystopian future, from people's Kindles. The irony was lost on no one.
So, is Kindle still worth it? Let us know in the comments.
