Amazon ranking
For a definition, go here, and for an explanation, go here (probably NSFW).
Apparently, Amazon is removing sales rankings from (a seemingly random subset of) books mentioning homosexuality or feminism. The books are still find-able if you know what you're looking for, but then it's not really a search, is it?
Here is a blog post about this, and here is a list of books currently affected. (You can go to Amazon yourself, find one of the titles by searching the exact title, and do a find on the page for the phrase "sales rank." It, as of right now, won't be there.)
And, finally, here is an alternative bookstore that doesn't categorize materials mentioning homosexuality as "adult" and worth excluding from sales rankings while ignoring such things as straight pornography and sex toys. Enjoy!
