Should Amazon remove LGBT materials such as a biography of Ellen Degeneres from its ranking lists?


Turns out Amazon is screening out any gay, lesbian, bisexual and transsexual books from its online search and bestseller ranking, under the pretense of calling those "adult" materials. So books like the biography of family talk show host, Ellen Degeneres, is left out of the Amazon list.


Should Amazon remove LGBT materials such as a biography of Ellen Degeneres from its ranking lists?

Censorship is bad, no matter how you slice it. So bloody typical of US companies...
