They won't get any satisfaction but maybe they'll become a little less ignorant in the process.
That is not what people are upset about. People are upset that others can get Amazon to ban a book by complaining or otherwise putting pressure on them. What is frightening is that small interest groups can put such pressure on a giant company like Amazon to self censor their offerings.

Amazon might be accused of caving in too easily, however, they have to think of business first.
