From Locus, the science fiction trade magazine:

Today the estate of Ayn Rand announced that they had authorized science fiction writers Charles Stross and Cory Doctorow to write an official sequel to Rand's bestselling novel Atlas Shrugged.

Ah, obscure April Fool's jokes that only a limited audience understands. Cory Doctorow's stance on copyright, and artists "ownership," is the best example of a counter-"Fountainhead" presentation as one could find.

Stross's aggressive leftism as well... Although one commenter wondered if Ken MacLeod had been unavailable.
