I never suggested anything of the sort. Authors who don't wish to write without the ability to hold their works ransom for money are perfectly entitled to not write, if they don't consider it worth their time. But when someone makes a work public to the eyes of the people and then tries to prevent them from copying and spreading that work unless a fee is paid, that is barbaric.
