A so - called super pac is a political action committee that is allowed to raise and spend
unlimited amounts of money to support or oppose a candidate, provided there is no
direct communication between the committee and the candidate.
Within weeks of the launch, authors were complaining that it was devaluing their books, in some cases by large
amounts — and that they couldn't opt out of the program because anyone participating in the Kindle
Direct Publishing Select program (which requires exclusivity) was automatically added to Kindle
Unlimited.
