Amazon banned a gun book from their site last night. It told me the book violated their content guidelines but wouldn't say which guideline and wouldn't answer any further questions.https://freebeacon.com/issues/amazon-bans-gun-book/ …

This is absolutely infuriating, and I'm a liberal who's fond of firearms. Amazon might have every right to do so, but that doesn't make it any less heavy-handed and wrong. Information should not be censored at the whims of whatever tech bro has the most money this week.

Amazing with how offended you are with a private business choosing which products they choose to sell. If you can still buy the book elsewhere, then the book isn’t being censored. It’s like telling a baker they are censoring cakes b/c they aren’t selling gay wedding cakes.

But that's the point isn't it? We're not talking about forcing someone to provide something they don't want to. We're talking about the morality of the freely made choice. You can say it is a bad choice for Amazon while acknowledging other outlets exist. It's not exclusive.

In a “free capitalist” society where we don’t force private companies to sell X or Y products &/or services just b/c.

Thanks, but let's be clear here, I disagree on the point that this is censorship. It's a business making a business decision. One which I happen to strongly disagree with, but simply a business decision nonetheless.

Okay. Thanks for clarifying, as you had previously stated they were “censoring information”.

Yeah, that was a bad choice of words on my part. My bad.
