>What in the hell were they thinking? In his blog post, Amazon Follies, Mark Probst explains how he learned about Amazon.com’s recent move that restricts information about “adult” literature, which seems to include all gay-themed literature, although the precise policy isn’t clear to me–if it is to them.
