Whats stopping someone from just torrenting ebooks and reselling them?
Copyright laws?

Im talking about more obscure shit and changing some stuff so they dont notice

Keeping >>1911548 in mind, probably nothing. In fact, Amazon has been caught in the past selling fake books via its third party sellers (fake as in a generic cover with 300+ pages of lorum ipsum). I wouldn't be surprised in the slightest if there were fake ebooks on the Kindle store right now.
This is also your daily reminder that Amazon is literally online Walmart for hipsters.

There's x amount of things your product needs to differ from the original. If you mean to fuck around with some pages to not make it the actual writers product, forget about it. You'll need to go so far the original won't be recognised anymore.

I'm gonna rebrand the cover and title, how are they gonna tell what the original was?

You are basically just hoping you dont get caught. You would get fucked in the ass if someone realized that it was the same book.

Because meme books are stupid cheap, and you will get caught if it's a popular book, besides how would you advertise? No one willing to use black market books is going to buy them, they will just torrent them themselves.

I've been doing similar shit for the past three years, anon. Screenshot related. However, it won't work for you for the following reasons -
1. Every decent book is now on kindle.
2. These days Amazon makes you prove it's not in copyright before they upload it.
3. If you do happen to slip through the cracks, someone will see it and report you, then your account will be closed.
The old days are no more, my friend.

Those days are over.
Amazon does Stylometric analysis now. That combined with Machine Learning will easily identify plagiarized works. A few may slip through from time to time but it's still a waste of time to even try.
Good luck fooling them.
