Amazon search flub causes stir
April 14, 2009
--
On Amazon.com, books with erotic content or which were deemed lesbian/gay had seemingly been stripped of their ranking and had disappeared from the main search on the front page of the website. Amazon calls situation a glitch in the system, but LGBT community claiming censorship.

You remove yaoi manga because it's 'explicit', Amazon, but not the more adult straight stuff? I am disappoint #amazonfail #doublestandard

Amazon's "report a problem" shipping page link leads to a dead end. Nice work boys... #amazonfail
