“This book is licensed for your personal enjoyment only.”
So Vice has some excellent backstory on a viral tweet showing a real, published book that warns you not to share it with your friends. But please, for now, just look with me upon the legally unenforceable travesty that is the warning:
“This book is licensed for your personal enjoyment only. This book may not be re-sold or given away to other people. If you would like to share this book with another person, please purchase an additional copy for each recipient. If you’re reading this book and did not purchase it, or it wasn’t purchased for your use only, then please return to your favourite book retailer and purchase your own copy. Thank you for respecting the hard work of this author.”
First sale doctrine? Never heard of it.
