Your right. It is a double entendre in American English and most advertisers in this instance would probably avoid saying it even on a vacuum cleaner here. Makes me wonder what a British protest site would add as a suffix or prefix.
Perhaps "bloodykindle.co.uk"
Unless he's selling something on kindleminds.net, I wouldn't think Amazon would have much of a trademark infringement case as long as the site is marked as "Unofficial."
