Your Kindle purchases can only be used on a limited number of devices that Amazon has approved, and Amazon can change how many devices are allowed at any time.

This clause means Amazon can reduce the number of devices on which you can read your purchased content without advance notice, potentially restricting your ability to access content across your personal devices.
While this concept is incorporated into the updated License-Not-Sale provision, removal of this standalone statement reduces visibility of Amazon's unilateral authority to alter device authorization limits.

"Kindle Content is licensed for use only on a limited number of Authorized Devices, and we may set and change the number of Authorized Devices on which Kindle Content may be used.— Excerpt from Kindle's Kindle Store Terms of Use
(1) REGULATORY LANDSCAPE: Device authorization limits interact with consumer protection standards regarding the availability and utility of purchased digital goods. The EU Digital Content Directive requires that digital content remain fit for purpose and available in a manner consistent with what was represented at purchase; unilateral reductions in device limits could conflict with these requirements. The FTC Act is relevant if consumers are not adequately informed of device restrictions at point of sale. (2) GOVERNANCE EXPOSURE: Low to Medium. Device limits are standard in digital content licensing, but the right to unilaterally change those limits post-purchase creates consumer protection exposure, particularly in jurisdictions with strong digital goods legislation. (3) JURISDICTION FLAGS: EU and UK users have the most significant exposure, as statutory remedies for digital content may limit Amazon's ability to unilaterally reduce device access post-purchase. California consumers may also have recourse under state consumer protection law if device limit reductions materially impair the utility of purchased content. (4) CONTRACT AND VENDOR IMPLICATIONS: Enterprise or institutional purchasers of Kindle content should note that device limits affect multi-user or multi-device deployment scenarios and are subject to unilateral change. (5) COMPLIANCE CONSIDERATIONS: Compliance teams should verify that device limit disclosures are made at point of sale and assess whether any historical changes to device limits have triggered consumer protection obligations or refund requirements.
