Theory: It's not Amazon's fault

IDK if I buy:
It's obvious Amazon has some sort of automatic mechanism that marks a book as "adult" after too many people have complained about itIt is? Could he have linked? I'm not seeing it. I may be missing it. If that is true, this situation is not analogous to six apart's reaction to Warriors for Innocence ( Read more... )

Amazon released a statement saying there was no policy and this was all due to a "glitch" and they were hard at work on re-instating titles...mayhaps they've actually begun?

(not sure about this whole "glitch" explanation, though...)

Actually, Macho Sluts may have been a terrible example...to be fair, I didn't search it specifically, I just searched "Patrick Califia" and saw that nothing but, like, used copies of out of print editions of Saphistry showed up and extrapolated. Now It seems like Macho Sluts may actually be out of print for the moment, so the fact that only used copies shows up makes sense sans AF?

Heh. Embarrassing. This is why I can't be a journalist.
