Yes, that's technically true, but have you actually met any authors willing to go through with that? Basically all I've ever even seen would never do such a thing, they crave the convenience of some form of publisher, and they're all too scared of "doxing" or whatever other cybersecurity scare is circulating amongst the normies to ever put anything like bank details up. (PayPal and co. are just as bad as Amazon in many respects, so that's not really a solution either). I don't have a solution myself, I just wish people wouldn't pretend that Amazon is some sort of benevolent protector of creators when they pull some DRM bullshit. :reimu_sigh:
