This is not censorship. As a private entity, they're quite entitled
to sell or not sell any books they choose.
Every day they make such decisions. If they decide not to sell a
given book because it's crap, do you rail against them for
censorship?
As do you, I deplore the background to this sorry saga. But I
respect the bookstore's right to decide what to sell on commercial
grounds. The threat of legal action is a commercial factor.
Now if the Government had said they couldn't sell a particular book
(which regrettably it does) that would be censorship.
