Amazon Erases Orwell From Kindle Devices

[Robin Landseadel]

 From Today's NYT:

	In George Orwell’s “1984,” government censors erase all traces
	of news articles embarrassing to Big Brother by sending them
	down an incineration chute called the “memory hole.”

	On Friday, it was “1984” and another Orwell book, “Animal
	Farm,” that were dropped down the memory hole —
	by Amazon.com.

	In a move that angered customers and generated waves of
	online pique,Amazon remotely deleted some digital editions of
	the books from the Kindledevices of readers who had bought
	them. . .
