    Indie Author Spotlight: In Conversation with Junaid Murtuza

    Junaid Murtuza has been sailing merchant ships since 2007 and has the stories to prove it — including being fired upon by pirates off the West Coast of Africa. In this Indie Author Spotlight he talks about writing Rogue Sailors during stolen moments between ports, what drives ordinary people to extraordinary choices, and why nearly two decades at sea have given him more material than he could ever fit into one book.

  3. One more thing about this. When #piracy became an issue back in the early 2000s, every time I found a pirated book online I would tell my publisher and they would play whack-a-mole to get that one offline. After a while, they just gave up. So I know that all my books were pirated and exist in some form or another online. None of my registered books are currently in print.

  4. I don't know how many #writers reading this are included in the #AnthropicAI class action #piracy suit, but I have been approached by another legal firm that is actively working separate cases, ClaimsHero. They are prepared to take action for any or all of my 80+ registered titles. They work on a contingency basis and do not require exclusivity, so signing with them will not prevent me from signing with someone else or cost me any money beyond their contingency fees and expenses.

However, the site-blocking clearinghouse CUII stated that illegal content clearly outweighs legal content when at least 81.5 percent of a site is infringing. After KinoGO was recently blocked with a floor of 82.4 […]

  8. #Antipirating #ad music stolen

    «That insistent, driving beat music that runs all the way through that anti-piracy ad — was it paid for, or was it pirated and stolen? The uncomfortable answer is that it was stolen.»

  9. #Reminder Information is power — yet corporations like Reed Elsevier & co. have locked up humanity's scientific & cultural heritage. Aaron Swartz's 2008 call for Guerilla Open Access remains urgent: sharing knowledge is a moral imperative, not #piracy Time to liberate research for all. 🌍📚🔓

  13. I should stop being surprised at how quickly new films are pirated and available for sale.

    I should also examine why this doesn't bother me.

  14. I've heard on other social media that AppleTV is also starting to delete movies that people bought?

    On Google Play this already happened as well.
