  3. After reading this second response, I reread the first reply. A new interpretation came to the phrase "except where prohibited by law." On first reading, it sounded like "Ha, this is legal and we will keep doing it." In light of them claiming to investigate to sounds like "We don't like censorship, but will tolerate it in areas where we have to in order to do business." Of course the second response could simply be "Oh you're serious about this, so we'll say something to appease you for now." Either way, they've done an excellent job allowing themselves to change their minds without losing face. If you don't want to delete your account but want to show that you're serious about a boycott, you could make all your lists private until they make a change - emphasizing that you do not wish to receive items purchased on Amazon from others.t
