The same thing can happen with digital copies of movies. You sit down to watch Blazing Saddles (or some equally non-PC movie) one evening, only to find that PC police have removed it from your library.
I have Blazing Saddles on DVD
Its like $8 on Amazon, or $8 for the digital online version.
Screw the digital online version
I have a DVD player connected to my TV
I can put on my tin foil hat and pop it in and watch the greatness and the government doesn’t have to know about it
Yep - or edited-for-political correctness versions playing in place of the originals.
I downloaded “A NEGRO EXPLORER AT THE NORTH POLE” copyright ~1900 (A good read)from gutenberg.org onto my Kindle.
And one day it was gone???
The copy on my workstation is still there.
Also, note that many Ebooks cost the same as paper?
That's why I have my copy on DVD. Because you just know that some day THIS video will be banned. Offending the snowflakes dontcha know.

Just wait until the films and movies start CHANGING in peoples’ libraries. Won’t happen? It already has!
I have several Ryan Adams songs in my Apple Music iCloud (a streaming service that I pay $15/month to enjoy). When Adams found himself in all that recent #MeToo hot water for basically being a dick to girls, I half expected his songs to magically disappear. They haven't yet but the thought that Apple could easily do this made me reminisce about the days of buying CDs.
