Cheers and thank you! It is the first story in a whole collection called "Common Fantasies for Strong People."

I wrote code for the collection so that readers can comment on every paragraph, and also, the paragraphs light up to signify where the comments are. The darker the paragraph, the more comments that are lurking inside.

Some irritating design company in California ripped me off and is getting a lot of press for it right now...

Here's another excerpt from "Cypherpunks" at Salon:

You can only buy this book direct from the publisher. Amazon isn't carrying it.

You can also find it on popular torrent sites, as information wants to be free. (I would have bought it if it had been on Amazon, but, well.)

Wait...so your two options are buy from Amazon or pirate? Amazon is basically the worst corporation on the face of the earth. Supporting a small publisher -- especially a small publisher willing to publish Julian Assange, books about Bradley Manning, and books about Wikileaks, is basically a decent thing to do.

Why do you say Amazon the worst corporation on the face of the earth? I can honestly think of nothing that would justify that statement.

Yeah, it's not so much a moral argument as that I'm willing to pay ~10 seconds and up to $20 (and ideally, $10) for a book.

Actually I poked around the site more; it's not as bad as I thought (it takes normal credit cards, although authorize.net is kind of a pain). And the non-DRM ebooks are fairly acceptable. I'd still strongly prefer Amazon, but wouldn't pirate out of spite.

payment is very inconvenient.

That's why a free payment system (without state control) should be given the top priority.
