Although not specifically a fan of the yaoi genre (I'm not really the target demographic), it doesn't warrant this kind of censorship; granted, some Japanese lolicon stuff is a bit questionable, but anything that gets published in English should be fair game. Amazon seem happy to sell anything with an ISBN number, so I hope they wouldn't try that with the print versions - a shame that they see fit to quietly pull digital stuff and hope that nobody notices.
