The More You Fight Technology...

... The more it comes to bite you in the ass.

The latest Harry Potter was scanned and proof-read less than 12 hours after it was released. Looks like plenty of users split up the book among themselves, fired up their OCR and assembled the whole thing.

This is after the author categorically refused to release a digital version for fears of piracy. Considering she personally made something like 36 million dollars in one day, I'm not crying for her.
