Plagiarism Today: The DMCA Notice From Hell

  • Noel Cower · 3 years ago
    Ouch, hope Google listens now. Honestly, I'm not sure if it's just that nobody has sent DMCA notices yet or if they just ignore it, but that Bitacle has lasted this long is disconcerting. I can only hope that none of my content gets ripped by them as well, since I've taken what precautions I can think of already.

    Wow. Putting together that DMCA must have been tedious! I'm anticipating the results -- do share! Also, the trackback on this post from 'Adsense planet' comes from a splog.

    Cheers!

    It's all for a cause worthwhile! :o)

    As soon as you have the 'PDF copy of the notice (sans personal info and Bitacle links)' ready, it'll be linked to on stopbitacleorg, if you agree with that.

    Noel,

    I'm not sure either about that one. I'm going to assume that it's because no one has tried since A) I have read no posts from people who have B) No one I have talked to about it has fallowed through on it and C) I try to think the best of people until proved wrong. If that happens, you'll be the first to know.

    MaxPower,

    I thought I had deleted that !@#4 trackback after I got it. Looks like it didn't take. I'll do it again in a second. I know their history and remove their trackbacks as I get them. I don't mind their use of my content since it is only a sentence, but I do try to shut down the trackbacks.

    As far as the notice goes. It took about three hours to assemble. Not too bad and most of my delay was Bitacle's slow site. Still, considering I never take longer than 10 minutes in most cases, it was a long road.

    Stopbitacleorg,

    Of course. Not a problem at all. I'm going to wait another day and see what Google has to say. They usually take at least 24 hours and, given the length of this notice, it could be much longer.

    Still, it was fun faxing that.

    Give them hell.
    Hit them HARD... For all of us whose content will be eventually stolen if somebdy doesn't stop those rats now.
