eBook Piracy - How to Respond If Someone Steals Your eBook Online - The Digital Reader

As Panzer was tootling around in the Catosphere he decided to make a stop at The Digital Reader site. With a little digging in the posts our kitty boy found one about what to do when you find someone has pirated your ebook.

Why do humans steal?
According to The Digital Reader site owner Nate Hoffelder's post, he recently discovered someone had pirated one of his ebooks. Since this necessitated the filing of a DMCA take down notice, he decided to describe the process. The three possible types of locations of the pirated material are described. It's then explained how to determine where to send the take down notice. The last section of the post contains links to companies or people who will do the work for you, if you don't want to.

Panzer says, "This is the kind of information all authors need to know."

Note: This is a long post. Bring two cups of tea and three muffins for today's reading selection.
