comment Is it permissible to erase the name of G-d from an E-reader?
It seems pretty close to writing. Actual particles are laid down in a way that will remain there until the Kindle goes to sleep. But it makes sense that there can be more leniencies for pesukim and Torah that does not have the Name (e.g Bar-Ilan).

"The E-ink is not permanent stuff" It is forbidden to write a passuk on a fruit, because it will inevitably rot. So that might not help things.

It's likely you wouldn't be allowed to put the name there in the first place, but b'dieved, there could be some solution (e.g wait for it to shut off). But that argument won't make something permissible.
