And I do want to reiterate: read Ben's original rant.

He never actually advocates pressuring MWP to pay these freelancers he's so certain are being so abused.  He calls for a boycott but puts no terms of compliance with this grave injustice he's the only one brave enough to fight (or whatever).

He might have really meant to call for those things before the siren's call of Marvel ranting, "big mean company v. Indie little guy", and "let me paint freelancers as timid and unwilling to handle their own affairs" and such hit but...he didn't.  He did have the time to tell everyone how he'll never work for the man and how important creator owned stuff like his is but...he was too distracted to actually serve as an actual advocate for the poor anonymous souls he was protecting from...margaret weis?  I mean have you ever met her because...big scary creator abusing overlord is not the term that springs to mind.

Seriously, and I say this as a trained and experienced advocate...if that was intended to be protecting and championing someone other than Ben and his own stuff?  It basically sucked.  I mean it was babytown frolics...

Of course as an attempt to drum up attention for oneself using a profession Ben proudly declares he'll never be part of and yet who need his altruistic and completely not self interested at all...well it still kinda sucks, but it's much better I admit.
