in some cases, like that, the authors are just very, very, very, VERY fucking stupid. wendig is stupid, but he's also a selfish asshole, cuz he has money to burn! and he doesn't spend it supporting indie creators!
You know he doesn't "shit his pants constantly about pirates", like the viral tweet everyone is mad about is one of the few times I've ever seen him talk about the topic

He *was* one of the people siding with the Big 6 against Amazon in 2014, and I'm pretty sure a lot of people who jumped on him were residually pissed at him over that But that clearly wasn't about "piracy", it was about (legal) downward pricing pressure in general

Like the fact that this isn't about piracy per se is what's telling to me about this debate, that people were FURIOUSLY on Amazon's side even though they weren't relaxing copyright in any sense at all, just lowering prices for the consumer
