Allowing some injustices and illegal behavior to go on because there exists larger injustices out there doesn't seem like a good strategy for anyone hoping to see an improvement.
In absolute terms, I agree. However, in the real world there are limits on resources. Imagine there was a serial killer loose in your town, and instead of seeing headlines about the police's progress in catching him, the headline reads "police bust local book store for selling books on the sidewalk without a permit." You'd be asking what the progress is on the serial killer.
I'm not saying the ebooks thing isn't a problem, it just seems so trivial compared to the other crushing problems our country is facing at this moment.
