They've blacklisted and deleted all of Bujold's work with the comment: "This author's work will not be listed on FreeSFOnline, because her view of what constitutes freely available fiction is incompatible with this site's policy." |
That's going to keep me away from the site even though I've already got all of Bujold's works that I'm interested in. It's up to the author, not the site. Even if she did allow her ebooks to be freely distributed she still has the right to say where (and how) that distribution will take place. These are her books, it's her right, and if the site thinks differently-as the quote implies-then it's not a place that deserves support.
