Association of American Publishers: Turn in Sklyarovs for $$

The Association of American Publishers is offering a reward for \”information leading to a criminal arrest, criminal conviction, civil fine, or other penalty in association with piracy of American books, journals, and other AAP member products.\”

More information is available here. To be fair, it remains to be seen how this will relate to electronic publishing and the DMCA, though AAP\’s statements to date do not bode well. Hats off as usual to Politech.
