As someone who just wrote a very long comment about a week ago explaining why you can't call a publisher deciding not to publish something "censorship" (and I stand by it), I feel a lot more uneasy about curtailing third-party resale than I do a publisher deciding not to publish things. Third-party resale is one of the few checks on the otherwise unlimited market powers that copyright holders have; and this could wind up being precedential if applied beyond weird exception cases like racist books. I'm not going to rail against this particular action any further, because I do not believe in vice signalling and do not care for these books. I can already see people lining up to misinterpret Martin Niemöller and blow some dog-whistles, and I do not want to pitch my tent in their ideological camp. However, I could totally see Disney or Nintendo getting bright ideas to try and shut down legal resale markets for "vaulted" works in the name of profit.
