Amazon now censoring “The Art of War” worldwide

I’m

getting these from

all around Jeff Bezos’s personal planet

now.  For a book which I wrote and to which I own the

copyright and which they previously approved and sold.

People

have been asking me

what Amazon’s explanation for this is.

There isn’t one, and that’s very curious. You know

how big they are on customer service, how Bezos says “we’re

not selling books or CDs or lawnmowers, we’re selling customer service”?

Well, they’re doubly oriented that way when you’re a content provider, content

being most of what they sell. Publish a Kindle boook, and they give you a

fast channel for communicating with them. They answer the emails

in a hurry. Cover doesn’t look right on the linked page?

Someone having trouble with a download?

Presto! Response.


And

they respond when

I write them about censoring my

book, too. They acknowledge

getting the email.

That’s it.
