Copying Content Is Not A Complement
It was brought to my attention recently that someone has taken content from my blog and re-posted it to blogspot. I have used the contact form available on their blog to request the removal of my content and have gathered the information I need to file a DMCA complaint if that is not successful.
I don’t have advertisements on this site, and I don’t ask for donations. Everything I have done over the years remains in place and available for the broader user community. Why someone would think they should (or could) take what I have created it and post it as their own work is beyond me. 😕 Bottom line: if you find my content posted elsewhere in the Internet (quotes are fine, references are fine, copying is not) please let me know. Thanks.
Someone stole one of my blog posts years ago on a corporate site. I emailed in to ask them to take it down before I had to file a complaint and they had the gaul to tell me I was too uptight (which I am seldom accused of) just because I was making a “big” deal out of their content intern making a “tiny” mistake.
By the way, love to see you back out here blogging, Dave. Does my heart good.
There were three posts that I identified. I filed a DMCA “take down” notice and those are removed.
