+<p>Update 2012-10-23: On the evening the day the story broke, Amazon
+restored the account of the user, as reported by

+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, and is still
+drawing quote a lot of attention.  But even if the account is
+restored, the fundamental problem still exist.  I recommend reading
+two opinions from

+Phipps</a> and
