Amazon.com Censoring Literature

Sun Apr 12, 2009, 6:54 PM
  • Mood: Furious
  • Listening to: Son of the Morning -- Akercocke
  • Reading: The One-Armed Queen -- Jane Yolen
Well, Amazon.com has lost at least one customer: "Amazon.com apparently stripping sales ranking indicators from LGBT, sexuality and feminist books". Lesbian parenting books, studies on the history of sexuality, feminist anthologies, erotica, romances etc. are disappearing from sales rankings and Amazon's search listings. If this also pisses you off, spread the word.

I for one fully endorse the newly created definition for Amazon Rank. Fuck literary censorship of all kind.
