They’ll modify it soon enough. Amazon will respond to only one thing - everyone stops buying ebooks from Amazon.

Understood, but I “purchased” books over the years I’d like to keep as mine.

many ebooks from Amazon are drm free you can just download and pull them. or just pirate them and not worry about it

I second this. You bought it. Somewhere, somehow. Amazon doing a rug pull under you is their fault, not yours. Go pirate without any guilt.
