I am not a "sick predator," and I resent the slanderous implication that my choices in reading material make me one.

I've read and enjoyed Selena Kitt's works. Are you saying that means I'm a criminal, or a morally-reprehensible person who needs to be stopped? (If so, what actions do you think removing my access to books will prevent?)

Amazon can make any choice they want about what books they can carry, but (1) removing them from download is breach of contract; the info-page for Kindles states "All Kindle purchases from the Kindle Store are automatically backed up online at Amazon and available through your Archived Items on your Kindle or online at the Manage Your Kindle page. You can redownload content wirelessly for free, anytime."

and (2) refusing to tell authors & publishers what content they refuse to carry is a vile business practice, far more dangerous to society than providing kinky content to people who want to read it.
