I tried to get rid of my Amazon account (I cancelled an order [and got it cheaper at BN] and been boycotting them since the patent thing) and had to individually delete a bunch of info sets. Got his email today from'em:

In a recent amazon.com interview you said that one of the aims of your new book Designing web usability: the practice of simplicity is to "Make the Internet easy to use: if we want to build a new economy, we have to make it simple and pleasant for normal people". What then are your thoughts on amazon's 1-Click and affiliate patents?
