I want 2 major changes in the eBook world:

1. I want someone to sell a device with hardware & software as good as the Kobo Libra Colour that isn't coupled to a single bookstore
2. I want it to be come normal for authors - ESPECIALLY self published authors - to sell their their books directly instead of just handing them over to Amazon.

Amazon will NEVER stop fucking authors over, & they'll never improve the 馃挬 software on the Kindle devices if we don't give them a reason to.

Your periodic reminder that ICE is only 22 years old and created as a knee-jerk reaction to 9/11, turning the previous agency which was largely regulatory in nature into the militaristic kidnapping machine we have today.
