Gog-games has returned; if you missed it, they went private for a while, then announced they were coming back in a week. They seem to have come back early.

      It doesn’t work. If you don’t want things you post publicly on the Internet to be scraped, don’t post things publicly on the Internet.

          There’s a German word called “fremdschämen”, which roughly translates to “second-hand embarrassment”. It think it’s appropriate here.

      He’s right you know. Scrapers and journalists will simultaneously know and respect the fact that he is not in the US, nor does he allow them to use his content without adherence to the license that he tacked on. I mean who would do that? And if they do? Oh boy they’ll be in trouble. Cory Doctorow will probably fire on them from his balloon or something. It’ll be glorious.
