They didn't want erotica (especially queer erotica) showing up on their bestseller lists.
I had adult gay titles (including erotica) under my name, but ALL my books, including my non-queer children's titles, had their sales ranking stripped.

If you're using Amazon Affiliates you may have noticed that some books, specifically erotic and erotic romance titles, are no longer eligible for affiliate income.
@iheartsapphfic.bsky.social noticed this and wrote a full explainer as to what's going on.
Y'all remember #AmazonFail?
Wooden board with a groove carved into it.
Reddish wooden board, polished and oiled with an embedded, blueish.green shimmering Labradorite and a brass plate underneath, reading "The Ultimate Infinity Stone - The Hiddlestone".

The Ultimate Infinity Stone - Background Story On September 28th, 2025, I was searching online for both seasons of Loki on Blu-ray. While browsing the steelbook editions on Amazon.de, I was shocked to discover that Tom Hiddleston's name had been misspelled as "Hiddlestone. I flagged the error to @AmazonHelp, and while they did correct the spelling on the Season One Blu-ray, they left it unchanged on Season Two and on The Night Manager - Staffel 1. Despite my follow-up nudges over the next few days, no further updates were made. Life and work kept me busy for a while, but by Day 40, I checked again...only to find the same issue still lingering, unresolved. Then I dug deeper and what I found was staggering. Tom Hiddleston's name had been misspelled across multiple products, some dating back over 11 years. Even worse, other retailers, like Thalia, showed the same error. So I contacted Thalia late on a Saturday night. Before midnight, they replied, assuring me they would investigate. By Monday morning, nearly all affected listings had been corrected. Thalia had fixed their entire catalogue in under 48 hours. Amazon.de, on the other hand, has now ignored this for over 70 days. Since then, I've continued my campaign - emailing the distributor responsible for the listings, contacting Disney Germany, and even reaching out to CAA (Scarlett Johansson's agency), Equity UK, and SAG-AFTRA. I've posted daily on social media, hoping someone with influence might notice and apply the pressure I alone cannot. To keep spirits up during the campaign, I created a meme of Loki holding the Tesseract, joking that there was now a new Infinity Stone: The Hiddlestone - far more powerful than all the others combined. In just a few days, and with no prior woodworking experience (only metalwork, from my 15 years as a toolmaker), I crafted a small relic by hand. This piece now serves as a symbol and reminder: That names matter.
When frustration turns into art:
"...I created a meme of Loki holding the Tesseract, joking that there was now a new Infinity Stone: The Hiddlestone - far more powerful than all the others combined."

130 Days At this point, I’m convinced the credits are being guarded by a three-headed bureaucratic Cerberus who only responds to interpretive dance and 12-step escalation plans, and maybe the sacrifice of 2 unicorns, all known Infinity Stones, the one Ring and 20 gallons of dragon blood. Sounds stupid? Yes, it does. But she is the ignorance of the world’s largest retailer for ignoring the misspelling and miscrediting of actors. 130 days of me trying to fix this. 130 days of being given generic answers. 130 days of being stonewalled by agencies. 130 days since Amazon has been informed of those errors. #Namesmatter #RespecttheArtist #GloriousTypo
AmazonHelo reply: What a difference a single extra "e" can make. Apologies for the typo in the name "Tom Hiddleston". We've already forwarded this. Generally, you can always use the "Report an issue with this product" function on the respective product page. Thank you for your efforts. - Doreen
AmazonHelp reply: @TanjaWho Oh no, you're right! We really appreciate you bringing this to our attention. Below (screenshot), you'll see the option "Report an issue with this product." You can use that to report this kind of error (and other issues) directly to our catalog team. In this case, we've already done it. -Melanie
Look at this rather stunning promotion image featuring Tom Hiddleston. Quite a powerful visual, isn't it? Now consider this: AmazonDE, Prime Video and Amazon seem perfectly content promoting the new season of The Night Manager, using the face of a well-known and respected actor - Tom Hiddleston - while continuing to ignore that his name has been misspelled for nearly a decade on listings for Season 1. He is still listed as "Hiddlestone" Tom Hiddleston is not a product, but a person - one whom YOU, Amazon, should have the decency to list properly on your platform. AmazonHelp has been aware of this since the 28th of September - yet nothing changed. FIX THIS NOW!
130 days
130 days of 20 #Hiddlestone ‼ listings worldwide, actors misspelled and miscredited. If this is just a #typo, then why does it take that long to fix it?

Seeing them misspelled and mangled on the world’s largest retailer is disheartening. Why? Because every name represents years of work, rejection, growth, and earned recognition. Getting it right isn’t hard. It’s the bare minimum.

Loki - Season 2 - steelbook - ❌ not fixed The Night Manager - Staffel 1 - ❌ not fixed Kong: Skull Island - ❌ not fixed Crimson Peak - ❌ not fixed High-Rise - ❌ not fixed Only Lovers Left Alive - ❌ not fixed The Hollow Crown – Staffel 1 - ❌ not fixed The Life of Chuck - ❌ not fixed Thor/Thor - The Dark Kingdom - ❌ not fixed Thor - Tag der Entscheidung. - ❌ not fixed Apologise to Mr. Hiddleston - ❌ pending 52 days since I first contacted amazon about this issue. On November 18th, I discovered seven more errors — AmazonHelp acknowledged them, but dismissed the issue as a simple typo. This highlights a decade-long failure of their QA system and a clear neglect in maintaining accurate metadata. I hope this prompts a thorough audit — these misspelled names deserve to be corrected properly and without further delay.
