I guess none of this really upsets me because it IS the internet.Anything we put out there stays out there and people can do what they want with it,whether legally or illegally.

It happens everywhere.Especially Facebook,anyone can right click on your photos and save them and do whatever they choose with them,unless your profile is private.I would be more concerned about that rather than a forum like this where we are all anonymous.

I would get upset if I saw a post of mine copied word for word elsewhere too,of course I would,but I would sure be careful what I do put out there from now on.I once was a member of an abuse survivor forum and I have seen my story elsewhere,not word for word,but the same story nonetheless.It was upsetting but made me realize to be careful what I share online.
