I'm not going to get into the censorship debate because that word always brings in Constitutional and legal arguments which clearly don't apply here.
However I maintain that Amazon is clearly being unfair to Ms. Kitt in not providing her with an answer and clarification of what is and is not acceptable to them beyond the "Our standards are about what you'd think they should be" wishy-washy language that is in their TOS. Please, I'm sure they have a lawyer or two around the Amazon building who could churn out something better than that -- don't you think?

I just went to Amazon and confirmed they do have "incest fantasy" results of at least 397 items there. Even allowing for some results to be based on the "Fantasy" part alone, even having one book result for the whole search term (and they do) does throw a question of discrimination into the issue. As others have said, if the offensive tag applies to Ms. Kitt's books, then it should be applied to the others as well.
