<p>Dear Joy</p>
<p>There's not much I can say that hasn't already been said well by
others on this list, but I'd like to add my thanks to you for
taking the decision to write and circulate this testimony, which
to me was a sobering blend of the dispiritingly familiar and the
truly shocking. It will be a real help in spreading awareness of
how the people who do this operate and, I hope and believe, how
they can be challenged. <br>
</p>
<p> On a happier note, I'm now most of the way through reading <i>A
People's History</i>, and when I'm done will straight away be
passing it on to a new PhD student who's at the literature review
stage of a planned project on the Internet in public culture: your
revised narrative of the growth of networked computing is going to
be decidedly useful. <br>
</p>
<p>With all best wishes for the future,<br>
James<br>
</p>

<div>Hello SIGCIS Colleagues,<br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>First, thank you for your many on- and off-list messages of
congratulations and support for my book. I deeply appreciate
them, especially in the context of what I'm about to share.<br>

<div>Those of you who were on the list last spring saw my work
savaged by a man named Brian Dear. Even then, I received on- and
off-list messages of support for my scholarship. But what
happened publicly was only one piece of a terrible, terrible
year. <br>

<div>SIGCIS as an organization did the right thing, and for that,
I'm grateful.<br>

<div>Regards,<br>
