Sun Mar 18, 2018 2:47 pm #1 Online retailers such as Amazon's Kindle Select are making waves for authors who have limited adult or sensitive content in their novels such as Damian Light's book entitled "The Pirate Dunn: A Memory" about a time travelling pirate who lives in a mental institution and is a reformed racist. The book has adult situations, violence and sex as well as an occassional inuendo and has caused Kindle reps to not only have the book removed from Amazon but the Employees have been suspected of selling the author's work illegally on the black market while claiming censure and denying the author the right to view or update his work in his private amazon kindle settings.

Light claims that Amazon is a bigger scandal than illegal surveillance on Google. #damianlight #piratedunn #emceedunknoen #piracy #amazon #markets #retailers #copyright #censorship #dunknown #music #fiction FB_IMG_1509316767439.jpg
