  1. #PSA Scam alert for the Anthropic class action settlement, from Courtney Milan--an author whose books were stolen *and* someone who studied law and clerked for a SCOTUS justice. IOW: she's not giving legal advice, she's explaining her own decision and sharing her insights.

  2. News Podcast: BookCon Returns with a Welcome for Indie Authors; Anthropic Settlement Class Reaches 91%

    On this episode of Self-Publishing with ALLi, Dan Holloway reports on the return of BookCon to New York after a pandemic-era hiatus, where the Indie Alley proved a genuine hit with readers — a sign that the established book world is increasingly making room for independent authors. He also has an update on the Anthropic copyright settlement, where 91 percent of eligible titles were claimed before the deadline, putting the expected payout per title at around $2,931, with a reminder that traditionally published authors may receive less due to rights splits with their publishers.

  3. News Summary: Beehiiv Adds Webinars and Metered Paywalls; Anthropic Settlement Reaches 91% Claim Rate

    Beehiiv has been in the news again this past week. I want to report on the latest from the newsletter platform if for no other reason than an irresistible desire to say they have been busy little bees. A facility offering webinar capability will be of interest to some. But more interesting might be the so-called "metered paywall" capability. That's something many will be familiar with as readers, where you get a certain amount of content for free (say, three articles) before you have to pay to unlock more.

  5. News Summary: Supreme Court Rules ISPs Not Liable for User Infringement; Anthropic Settlement Fees Reduced

    Court cases around AI and copyright are most definitely back in the news following a brief hiatus whilst the courts issued a pummeling to social media firms last week. First up this week we have a unanimous Supreme Court ruling in the US in the case of Sony against Cox. Sony was suing the internet service provider Cox for $1 billion, alleging that it was complicit in copyright infringement.

    In the aftermath of the recent Anthropic Settlement (more information here), many writers are making a reassessment of the necessity and value of copyright registration. Claiming a share of pay-out from the settlement is 100% dependent on having a work registered with the U. S.
