So i hade many time to read newspaper. At Thursday the 21 of July there was an nice article in the “Tages Anzeiger” one of the best Newspaper in Swiss. Amazon has an nice e-book reader called Kindle. The device has an “Kill switch” trough this access port Amazon had full control of the device. Many of the next gen devices have this kind of access like the iPhone, Vista, Xbox and PS 3…. So Amazon sells books without have the digital publishing rights, uses the kill switch to delete these books from their readers and give the customer the money back. the book that was deleted was 1984 from Orwell Gerorge. For all geeks how don’t have read the book READ IT. The story goes like Boy meets girl in London, the story plays in an totalitarian society led by Big Brother. The beig borther controls the mind of all citizens. To fore his control the big Brother delets books.

Nice Irony I guess
