“The “Amazon Noir” crew (Paolo Cirio, Alessandro Ludovico, Ubermorgen.com) stole copyrighted books from Amazon in 2006/2007 by using sophisticated technology coded by Paolo Cirio. A subliminal media fight and a covert legal dispute escalated into an online showdown with the heist of over 3000 books at the center of the story.”

“THE PLOT: The Bad Guys (The Amazon Noir Crew: Cirio, Lizvlx, Ludovico, Bernhard) stole copyrighted books from Amazon.com by using sophisticated robot-perversion-technology coded by supervillain Paolo Cirio. A massive media fight and a brutal legal fight escalated into an online showdown with the heist at the center of the story. Lizvlx from UBERMORGEN.COM had daily shoot outs with the global massmedia, Ludovico and Bernhard hardly resisted kickback-bribes from powerful Amazon.com and Cirio violently pushed the boundary of copyright (just pixels on a screen – just ink on paper). Betrayal, blasphemy and pessimism splitted the gang of bad guys. In the end the good guys (Amazon.com) won and drove off into the blistering sun with the beautiful and seductive femme fatale (the massmedia).”
