content that discourage parents from vaccinating their children." Amazon subsequently removed five anti-vaccination documentaries. Amazon also removed 12 books that unscientifically claimed bleach could cure conditions including malaria and childhood autism. This followed an NBC News report about parents who used it in a misguided attempt to reverse their children's autism. Removal of other books In 2014, Amazon removed a book, described by critics as a "guide to rape", which claimed to reveal how women could be pressured into accepting sexual advances. Later, it removed a book by anti-Muslim activist Tommy Robinson. In 2015, Amazon received backlash for publishing A MAD World Order, a self-published eBook by Canadian serial killer and rapist Paul Bernardo, who had apparently gotten onto Amazon's self-publishing services through a computer in prison.

In 2019, Amazon removed the book Is Greta Thunberg just a puppet?

In 2021, Amazon removed listings for a 2018 book by conservative philosopher Ryan T. Anderson because it criticized legal protections for transgender people.

According to Holiday, while Amazon itself removed the counterfeits from publication and ceased selling them altogether, Goodreads itself considers the books valid editions because they have ratings and reviews posted on them and because they were technically "published", whether or not the legality of their existence was in question. In addition, a number of volunteer editors deadnamed Holiday,
