Ed Miller has changed his website. He says:

"My original vision for this site was that it would be free to read. I always intended to make money from it, but I wanted that money to come from advertising, from donations, and from other sources, not from my readers." [...]

"For about the last nine months, behind the scenes, I’ve been receiving pressure and threats aimed at forcing me either to shut down Noted Poker Authority or to make the vast majority of its content available for pay only (sounds ridiculous, I know). Up until now I’ve refused. But it’s become unpleasant and disruptive enough to me that I’m giving in. I’m not proud of it, but when I weighed my options this one made the most sense for me personally."

What's the end result? Well, so far:

"Effective yesterday, all articles on the site older than 30 days are unavailable."

And there are murmurs about who is doing this to Ed. The discussion at 2+2 was removed, which indicates some culpability. There are rumors that either 2+2 or StoxPoker or both are involved. And then there are rumors CardPlayer is doing it.

But Ed hasn't verified anything yet, so this fan is going to stay mum.
