- yesenadam 6y agoI clicked on that link (in Australia) and got "Sorry! Yikes! That story doesn’t exist on Gizmodo Australia, but we have plenty of other great content you can check out here. If you’re still hellbent on that particular story, you can access the US version of Gizmodo here." – I was automatically redirected to https://www.gizmodo.com.au/amazon-secretly-removes-1984-from-the-kindle-5317703?r=US https://www.gizmodo.com.au/amazon-secretly-removes-1984-from... No, not still hellbent thanks Gizmodo, just wanted to go to the link I clicked on, geez, if that's OK. Although after that weird experience, I don't. I thought the story had been deleted, for a moment!
