But it would be the user's choice. You probably wouldn't use filters like that because it's unsuitable to your tastes. There are people that really would not any erotica or Foucault or Our Bodies Ourselves or Heather Has Two Mommies. I know plenty of us are willing to look right past books we don't want or that even might offend us. There is sadly a good chunk of folks here in the US that seem to think they are owed a world that doesn't contradict their worldview. I would be sad if Amazon decides to pander to them with mandatory filtering. I'm fine with them being allowed to customize their searches.
