I知 sorry to read reports that Amazon has, at the request of Joe Lieberman and/or the Department of Homeland Security, cancelled Wikileaks hosting. Is that true? If so, why?
For the time being, I知 cancelling plans to include you in my shopping. This holiday season, Instead of sending Amazon gift certificates, I値l just send checks. The same for birthdays throughout the year.
No cause for alarm on your part, I suppose. It値l only amount to something under $2,000 a year in lost revenue for Amazon. And how many of your regular customers are feeling as strongly as I do about the Wikileaks issue? 5% maybe?
With regret,
Karl Frederick
