On Reddit, someone noticed that older books are being given new publication dates, putting them past the cutoff for the older versions of Kindle for PC.

It could be an update and Amazon is now putting the current date for updates.

I doubt that Amazon is maliciously altering the publication date of books. I suspect that they were reissued by the publisher in conjunction with a sale that caused the change to be noticed.

That thread does not mention specific books. It is impossible to tell what is happening without concrete examples.

I thought that too. It's more likely they are republished, as you suggest.
