No she's a teen fashion blogger and they just follow her around for a night asking questions that range from intensely personal to trolling like asking how many twitter followers a toilet has, and she maintains like a removed but slightly excited in a teenager way about the whole thing.

In the end it doesn't matter, because he's absolutely fucking awful at every one of them.

Tao posted those links.

By giving away a few shitty files to people who wouldn't have paid for them otherwise, he increases the change of someone buying Taipei, and promotes interest and future discussion about his work. It's basic advertising 101; Cut non-profitable goods or surplus stock, when the sacrifice justifies revenue from the increased promotion, or potential sale of veblen goods.

Lin knows exactly what he's doing.

He knows about fuuka and he probably thinks the free advertisement is worth losing a few bucks to evil pirates who wouldn't have bought his books anyway
