I don't want control, but I want more traceability. Which would then support control :)
It's not me, it's someone else.

Puffin is letting a third party edit Roald Dahl's books to make them "more inclusive".
These revisions have been worked on by "sensitivity readers" from an organization called Inclusive Minds, which describes itself as "a collective for people who are passionate about inclusion, diversity, equality and accessibility in children's literature, and are committed to changing the face of children's books."
There is nothing good or redeeming about this in the slightest.

Check my signature below and tell me that isn't happening.

China delivering lists of disallowed words and phrases like Metallica delivering reams of paper with Napster users.
