What does Jeff Bezos think is going to happen?

I bought a book on my Kindle — a thing I have done many times before. I exchanged money for goods, as one is supposed to do in a capitalist society. Then this happened. “While you can continue reading books previously downloaded, you can no longer download Kindle books to this device. You can, of course, continue to read purchased books using Kindle for Web, iOS, Mac and PCs well as supported Kindle devices.” I wonder what response Jeff Bezos expects me to do. Does he think I will buy a new Kindle? I can’t think of any other explanation for crippling a perfectly functional device. But of course I won’t buy a new Kindle, when this one is perfectly functional. I’ll just pirate the book that I have already paid for. I will find somewhere that I can download a non-DRM-crippled copy of the book, and put it on my device that I have also already paid for. And as for buying more books from Amazon?
