PSA: pirating site giving away indie and self published books and asking for "donations". They even have a "mission" statement twisting Gaiman's position against DRM to justify pirating thousands of books

If your books are on kindle unlimited, amazon can ding YOU if anyone finds them elsewhere, including pirating sites.
Report the #Pirates to their hosting service here:
Someone is either selling pirated copies of my book, or they're trying to scam people using my name and book. They even uploaded it under the name "River Hopkins" instead of "River J. Hopkins."
Can y'all please report the seller? This is the link. They're selling it for $14.99, and there's absolutely no way they have new copies for that price.
Apparently Black Sails is on #Netflix now from Starz. I highly recommend it as a complex drama with lots of politics and backstabbing all with pirates! Really great acting and lots of fun twists.
It's #CoverReveal day!!! I've been sitting on this cover for way too long, so I'm going to give it a bit of a party today. 😂 Hopefully the graphic works. Check my profile for blurb and the pre-order link. ❤️
Enemy of All Mankind: A True Story of Piracy, Power, and History's First Global Manhunt by Steven Johnson is a fun read so far. The brief history behind the dialect that inspired International Talk Like a Pirate Day (mark your calendar) alone makes it worth picking up. #Books#Bookstodon#FridayReads#AmReading#Pirates#NonFiction#Arrrr@bookstodon
🇬🇧 Digital Education is crucial for our future. The EU gives money, but is not interested in the results. We #Pirates advocate for #OpenSource projects and better cooperation.
🇬🇧 Today, the European Parliament agreed to create an EU Health Data Space #EHDS against the votes of #Pirates, selling out patient rights. This means:
Healthcare providers can access our health records without our consent
No right to opt-out of cross-border access to our health records
Big Pharma, Big Tech and government institutions will have access to our identifiable (pseudonomised) health records without our consent, even to DNA, psychotherapy, sexual disorders etc.
We don‘t even have a right to object to such access under national schemes
🇬🇧🏴☠️ Unlike conservatives, socialists and liberals, we #PIRATES and our group are calling for an end to voluntary #chatcontrol 1.0 because your nude pictures don’t belong in the hands of unknown moderators or police officers!
#CopyProtection of any kind is only reducing legitimate sales, frustrating paying consumers and making Piracy the better option and #Pirates the better sellers!
🇬🇧The #geoblocking of TV streams, media libraries and other digital content from other EU countries needs to be abolished! We #Pirates fight for free access to culture, even if the (non-leading) committee for legal affairs opined differently today.
🇬🇧 We #Pirates were able to see the secret #EUGoingDark surveillance plan for the new EU Commission and can provide you with insights 🕵️.
After the #European elections, among other things, indiscriminate #dataretention is to be reintroduced across the EU and manufacturers are to be forced to make digital devices such as smartphones or cars generally accessible for the police.
Yarr harr, fiddle-dee-rule.
