OTW board chair Naomi Novik on NPR

March 25, 2009 - Our own Naomi Novik appears on today's broadcast of NPR's All Things Considered, in a a story called Will E-Book Anti-Piracy Technology Hurt Readers? The aired program, as well as a shorter print version, is now available at the NPR website. Naomi is speaking against the DRM [Digital Rights Management] protection on e-books that mean that they can't easily be transferred from Kindle to Laptop to iPhone. Naomi notes that: "The biggest danger to most authors, to most storytellers, is not that somebody is going to steal your work and pass it along — it is that nobody is ever going to see your work."
