They've been this way from the start, when they told participants in
the first meeting we could blog about it. They were afraid, I think,
of Google. Whatever.

It's got nothing but worse since then. Having defended them for years,
and supported them whenever I could--certainly in my attacks on OCLC,
and not incidentally with data--I've almost given up on them.
