When I first saw the title of this thread, I assumed that Snashwords was refusing to sell certain types of literature they found offensive and I thought, well—so what? They are an independent business, and have the right to determine what they sell. Then I read the article and realized thus wasn't about self-censorship at all, but about a major financial institution (PayPal) attempting to impose their moral standards upon an independent bookseller. This is outrageous.
