Gentle request.

Please don't drop fake stuff for the lols for April fools.

We all have enough mental bandwidth consumed filtering out active disinformation and innocent mistakes to add to the burden. In general they aren't funny and degrade many folks online experience.

Thanks for listening.

While this fake copy of my book has finally been taken down, I think it's important to remind y'all to be mindful of stolen or fake products!

Some are easier to spot than others, keep an eye out for: matching or consistent branding, correct product photos and details, correct author/username, matching description and title. Check for reviews too.

When in doubt--shop using links directly from the creator, or ask the creator if the link/product is legit!

#psa You should probably stop using Startpage.com as a search engine.

#Startpage appears to have sold out to a company called "System1" who are a "pay-per-click behavioral ad company"
