Content Theft

[unixman]

An Indian chap has just copied one of my blog posts to his own server, where he is passing it off as his own work. No link back, not attribution. I have sent him an email. He actually left a comment on another post of mine which is how I found out (it contained a link to his site). It is trivial, but has anybody else experienced content theft over the web?

The guys web site seems to consist largely of Unix interview question lists and answers.

Do the needful and be direct.

He must be desperate to have copied any of your nonsense.

If you really care - launch a DOS attack. Or email bombing.

Presumably his blog either has a comments section or some kind of forum type thingy, maybe a CUK holiday over there?

As I said it was trivial, I was more interested in what other sorts of tea-leafery might be going on. I know some of you are developers, have you ever had code half-inched?

You should be flattered!

All copied from other sites. Unfortunately there are lots of blogs around with content copied from other sites.

Least it wasn't your photo linky

No comments section. Wonder why.
