To mitigate backlash.
- selcuka 4y agoTrue. And it's almost guaranteed that the uncensored editions will be "out of print" after a few months.

- paulryanrogers 4y agoThen why not just shorten copyright?
- account42 4y agoUnless you shorten it to low single digits (which would be nice, but so are unicorns) you'd still want a way to make things available that the original author no longer has a commercial interest in. It doesn't benefit society to make things unvailable, even if it is "only" for 10 or 20 years.
