Reminds me of the Carnoy article bemoaning the piracy of his book that, incidentally, told everybody exactly which torrent file to search for to get 2500 pirated commercial ebooks.

BTW, anybody check the rants in the comments sections?
Blasting amazon for selling ebooks-which-aren't-real-books, for *not* selling UK ebooks to other regions, for not supporting the blessed epub, for just existing...
And those where just the first four.
Then they turn on each other.
Piracy is theft, no it isn't--it's the greedy colluding publishers--no; it's the vat's fault...

Reminds me of a certain gaming site's freefire zone.
Lots of emotion, not much insight.
