+the evening after the story had spread all across the Internet, Amazon
+restored the account of the user, as reported by
+<a href="http://www.digi.no/904675/helomvending-fra-amazon">digi.no</a>
+and <a href="http://nrk.no/kultur-og-underholdning/1.8368487">NRK</a>.
+Apparently public pressure work.  The story from Martin have seen
+several twitter messages per minute the last 24 hours, which is quite
+a lot, and is still drawing a lot of attention.  But even when the
+account is restored, the fundamental problem still exist.  I recommend
+reading two opinions from
