There have been a few authors recently - usually newer authors - who have made a bad name for themselves because of how they interacted with readers. In some cases, it was calling them names for leaving bad reviews. In others, its an unreasonable restriction on the copyright page that completely ignores the legally-established First Sale Doctrine.
