I do not support the Combating Online Infringement and Counterfeits Act. At all. I have seen other authors who do and I want to take an explicit stand on the matter. I think the level of potential collateral damage would be far too high, and the whole thing just makes me profoundly uncomfortable.

My statement on piracy, such as it is, is here. Bottom line: Please don’t. Or if you have, no harm done, because you can go buy something of mine to make up for it. But I have too much shit to do to justify spending time chasing around the internets filling out takedown requests. And I’m really not sure I want things to go beyond that in any case.
