No sharing on Kindle for Mac

says the tech support guy. But when I highlight something on the mac, it syncs the highlight to my kindle which can share and also saves the highlight in my plain text "my clippings.txt" file on the Kindle which I can freely copy and paste from. So let's put all this nonsense about protecting the book aside and get working on adding both a share button to the Kindle for Mac app and maybe lightening up on the cut and paste restrictions. Let the people have their paragraphs. Just lock out the ability to copy and paste the entire book. Don't stand in the way of your users just to defend against piracy that is rampant and going to happen anyway.
