Piracy witch hunt downs legit e-book lending Web site
http://j.mp/NpEzmT (CNET)
"On August 1, a vitriolic, hysterical mob of authors mistook e-book
lending Web site Lendink for a piracy clearinghouse, rallying a
terribly mistaken call to action. The site remains offline today as
details emerge revealing just how wrong these authors were -- and how
unrepentant some of them still are."
