Travis, I'm sorry but nothing you can say or do at this point will undo the damage. Bottom line, you've antagonized authors and readers and little else. Any venture you attempt in order to save the world will be met with scorn. No one is going to forget the sad little MP candidate who claimed he was helping impoverished children by taking money away from hard-working authors.

Furthermore, as a Canadian, I am personally insulted that you dare to hide behind your nationality. I'm one of the people who frothed to my MP about Bill C-11, and yet here you are, proving to Paradis & the rest of the Harper government that Canada does need to act to protect copyright holders.

People like you give publishers ammo to restrict library access to ebooks. "Oh, it'll only open the door to pirates," they say, and here you are proving them 100% right. For those of us who have been fighting for libraries, you're an embarrassment.

Find out about these authors whose books are on your site. They're fathers and mothers who have bills to pay. They write because their day job alone doesn't cut it, so rather than work at the Kwik-Way every night they bang out a book. They write three books a year instead of two because they have a new baby and they need the extra money badly. How many authors do you think break the 10K mark? Whether you choose to acknowledge it or not, you're taking money from people who worked hard to get it and probably need it to make ends meet. When was the last time you worried about how you were going to make rent for that month?

I've read your blog. You show support for the Occupy movement and denigrate the Harper & Toews for Bill C-30, and yet you were the first to publish the home addresses of authors who don't play by your rules.

You're a hypocrite. Stand on your soap box all you want, but that's what you are. Shut down the site and pour your energy into a cause that matters. Canada has enough of them and they could all use your help.

Though I suspect from your comments here about trying to get a radio spot, helping people really isn't really what you're out to do.
