Plus knowing techniques and ways they use can be an informed way to prevent such things. Just like the book "Art of Deception" does with security. | ||

A better comparison would be Amazon refusing to sell The Anarchist Cookbook -- which they do sell, despite posting a prominent note from the author begging people not to buy it. I wasn't making the comparison to this "how to rape kids" book. I was responding to a previous post, not the OP. | ||

Sure they have the right to sell what they want, but that doesn't give people the right to tell them what they can or can not sell. OT: I personally don't believe it should be censored, it's a book, if you don't like it's message then don't read it. Date Rape is a crime as well but there are plenty of books out there about it. As well as murder, look to Dexter and any mystery novel. Look to forensics books, they all teach you how to not get caught, so this book does the same with a different crime. If you censor it, it will just go down a good ole book burning path and set us back 100s of years culturally. | ||

"ban pedophilia instruction?? what next Hemingway?!" | ||

Not how it works. Plus knowing techniques and ways they use can be an informed way to prevent such things. Just like the book "Art of Deception" does with security. This is a good point, another thing to consider about revealing information like this is that the light that it's put in is mostly irrelevant. Take for example that law & order show that exclusively deals with rape and pedophile cases, they generally don't put the offenders in a good light however they thoroughly explore ways that people get away with the crimes, which reveals just as much potentially abuseable information. Should this show similarly be censored? I'm highly offended by that show but I still don't call for censorship. | ||

I don't understand how Amazon can defend a book that promotes illegal acts and how to avoid getting caught for performing them I don't think it would... And it certainly shouldn't be. | ||

Or how about books on how to use social engineering to steal identities? No, education in any form should never ever be censored. The terrible analogies in this thread disheartens me. You do not distinguish between firearm maintenance and child rape? | ||
