Re Werewolves. Yes. Furry sex is now against the rules. Werewolves can have sex but they have to be in human form.
Re Amazon. Amazon does not are much what Paypal says. Amazon and Ebay are rivals, and Ebay is the parent company of Paypal. That's why you can't use paypal to buy products on amazon.
Amazon does not allow incest themed erotica either. Though it hasn't gone so far as to outlaw 'pseudo incest' yet. If there are some books there they slipped in and will be removed eventually as the Amazon censors come across them.
