Now that's not to say that e-book DRM is nearly as important as protecting
the original copy of the constitution. The point is, restrictions are
everywhere. It's just that some people choose to complain about only some
of them for silly reasons.

&gt; &gt; You can get a text copy for free of course, but plenty of books
&gt; &gt; have been sold with the Constitution and of course some history
&gt; &gt; text thrown around it. I have several in a box in storage.
&gt; &gt; Were they free? Nope.

&gt; Everyone one of those books you can give to someone else.  You can not 
&gt; do that with an e-book.
