Non-user initiated filtering should be a no-no, period.
Most users would be unaware of such filtering, and would be thus deprived of the ability to access all content. Moreover, for most users, the Amazon Store has a de-facto monopoly position, preventing them from obtaining the content elsewhere.
And in practice, how is such filtering done?
I would imagine the Bible would be among the filtered books, since in it one can find a wide range of objectionable scenes, from torture and murder, to incest and infanticide.
It's just an idiotic idea, and in addition to the bad publicity, I can someone the implementation in court.
