I agree with you. In a perfect world, I'd pull my books from KU ASAP. But it currently makes up 70% of my income (down from 80%). I'm doing my best to devest. But it doesn't happen overnight and a blanket boycott still only hurts smaller creators like me. That effort is better put elsewhere.

This is why we need morally gray heroes. They fill that need!

The only people a boycott of KU is going to hurt are the authors. KU's income makes up a TINY bit of Amazon's income (and Bezos only owns like 8% of the company). Yes, the payouts suck. But for ppl like me, it's how I pay my bills and feed my family.
