with the whole Roald Dahl thing they backtracked and started offering the censored versions alongside the originals, but they've changed the originals in the repository so people who buy books on Kindle or whatever else don't get a choice, the new versions get pushed to their accounts and devices as if they were the only ones that ever existed -
2023-03-07 at 2:24 PM UTCit's interesting because it opens the possibility for ebooks like that to be silently updated with no accountability and relatively minor changes are unlikely to be noticed at all

2023-03-07 at 2:57 PM UTCI recently downloaded all nine seasons of
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tales_of_the_Unexpected_(TV_series)
All un-revised and including nipples...because in the UK we don't find nipples offensive like the US does (gay).
US TV...you can show people having their heads blown off and killed in 100 different ways...but woe betide if you show a nipple on primetime TV

The Times’ report stated that Stine himself made the changes, claiming that he engaged in “self-censoring.” Stine was heavily criticized on social media for his apparent efforts to “appease woke culture.”
