“In the last decade, and especially the last couple of years, the number of piracy complaints handled by the Authors Guild has skyrocketed, which is why we no longer could sit by and allow book piracy entities like KISS Library to continue to rob authors and publishers of their ability to earn a living,” Preston, president of the Authors Guild, said in a statement. “We are filing this suit not only on behalf of ourselves but for the thousands of authors who labor years to write a book, putting their hearts and souls into every sentence, only to see their income lost to book piracy.”
“Amazon’s wind purchase is a good first step to meet the promise that it will power its data centers with 100 percent renewable energy, and is welcome news for Amazon’s customers that have called on the company to embrace renewable energy,” said Greenpeace Senior Energy Campaigner David Pomerantz.
“For example, neither release notes nor documentation make it clear what is open source and what is proprietary. Enterprise developers may inadvertently apply a fix or enhancement to the proprietary source code,” Cockcroft wrote.

“As long as it’s a cool new spot I wouldn’t be opposed to it. Chicago might be pretty rough because it’s so cold. It’s gotta be a good outdoor area, like this for lifestyle. Denver would be cool. Austin would be cool.
“I don’t think too much about that, it’s incredibly flattering, seriously thank you, but I’m much more comfortable in small groups of people, this I enjoy, I don’t have that performer gene, I don’t want to be a Broadway actor. I’m having so much fun and what we really love to do is pioneer and invent. We like to take things that are ordinary and then improve them to the point where people think; “Wow, that’s totally different”. What’s really exciting is when that new way that we invented becomes normal, that’s kind of like the ultimate compliment.”
“High margin businesses have been around forever in lots of industries, and they are obviously a very valid and successful business model. It is just not ours. It is radically different to run a 60 to 80 percent gross margin business then a high volume, low margin business. And, if you believe like we do, that the vast majority of computing is moving to the cloud over the next 10 years, it stands to reason that cloud computing is going to be a high volume, low margin business. If you run a high volume, low margin business … you think about your pricing differently, you think about your cost structure differently, you think where you spend your innovation cycles differently…. Now, Amazon, every business we run is a high-volume, low-margin business. We like those businesses. We are very comfortable running them. And we have that DNA. I think most of the old-guard technology companies, who are running 60 to 80 percent gross margin businesses, don’t like those businesses and that’s why the are pushing the private cloud so hard, because it doesn’t disrupt their existing business models. But, I think those companies over time will see, that the world is moving in the direction that AWS is pointing. And then it will be interesting to see how many of those companies will be good at operating high-volume, low margin businesses, because you don’t flip a switch over night and become great at operating high-volume, low-margin businesses. They are completely different operating characteristics.”
“I believe Amazon needs to select a location that will help them better compete in the 21st century while exploring and testing future technology and transportation that may not become a reality 10 or 20 years from now,” Ladd said.
