To me it is censorship. For me a bookshop is but a conduit, a pipe through which information flows. They should have no say in what I want to read, nor should they be able to make any judgements in what I can or cannot read, I do that for myself.
So, legally they appear to be perfectly entitled to decide what content they will hold, it is their store after all.
Morally, they're going down completely the wrong path if they are to hold themselves arbitars of what I can or cannot read. At what point do they decide to stop, where will they eventually draw the lines ? If they are indeed doing this then to me it is the very essence of censorship.
I've already closed down my Amazon account over their handling of Wikileaks, but if this were true I'd have left them anyway.
