It seems that the Kindle’s cracked screens aren’t the only thing Amazon is getting sued about. This time, a 17 year old high school student is sueing Amazon because they deleted his homework, literally.

If you’ll recall a while back, Amazon, without notice, deleted digital copies of George Orwell’s 1984 and Animal Farm from every Kindle that had it. Well the 17 year old in question was reportedly using the Kindle to take notes on 1984 for a summer assignment. Once the book was deleted, so were his notes, leading the teen to bring forth such a lawsuit.

The law suit seeks not only punitive damages but also seeks to forbid Amazon from doing the same thing in the future.
