#1 Knopf is an American publisher. Don't we have some laws about "profiting from a crime" here? Can't we glom on to the proceeds?

#5 "Can't we glom on to the proceeds?"

I'm not sure if we can, mojo, but I sense an excellent opportunity for a sleazy lawyer to sue him in the name of someone who had relatives killed in Africa (wherever it was that Ass~~ange~~hole publicly stated wikileaks caused a lot of deaths) and have the proceeds frozen until the resolution of the case (and any appeals) ~~many years hence~~. :-D
