If you live in another country, you already have a problem. Books are not universally avalable and are many times banned or censured.

ebooks make it easier to turn this around. Digital media is reliable, easy to transport and distribute.

Unless Amazon cooperates with the regime in the future to censor the ebook too, most publishers won't but a major distributor like Amazon might if doing so allows them a large government contract with said regimes, or entrance to the market like Google's Chinese censorship.
