Most of us just commented on the offending blog posts that he was wrong for stealing material. We didn't seek out other ways of contacting him. His site is his own site. So, just like I'm the CEO of my business, he's calls himself and editor in Chief. His site is a WordPress site though, and the ads look generic through Wordpress. His site itself looks very old in the design, so I doubt he actually has anyone working for him.

As far as books, there is a thing these days called self publishing. Lots of people self-publish and sell on Amazon. So lots of people claim to be authors or professional writers who can't write for crap but because they self published they think that makes them a professional writer.

What if he isn't the first. What if this has been going on longer, how many have been violated? Not to add fuel to the fire, but where there is one, there's more. Usually.

Probably. Shows how we need to think about what we post. After all, once something is online, it’s online and out there for millions to see, regardless of what website it’s on. I’m not in the least bit concerned about confidentiality if any of my posts here are stolen onto another website. But I would be upset simply because it wouldn’t be done with my consent.

Those were my thoughts too. If he had asked it would have been better

Exactly this has been weighting on my mind. I am so torn about posting here about anything important or personal even if I do not post and identifying factors in my post that can be traced back to me.

You know someone can write an article about therapy and write something I wrote about a session and then my T is reading about articles written on therapy and then recognizes that it is exactly what was said and done in one of our sessions and then gets suspicious.

Folks, the Internet is a big place and people make mistakes about copying content that they're not allowed to copy. We have to educate even our own writers about images and copyright. It's natural to feel outrage and upset, and the first time it happened to me, that's exactly what I felt too. (Now I just get exasperated because of how often it happens.)

What the DMCA allows for is to contact the author or publisher of an article and have them remove the offending content. The "offending content" in this case were the exact quotes of people's posts. He's done that, so that's the end of the story.

Anybody can and is free to write articles based upon things they've read elsewhere, whether it be a book, a forum post, or another blog posting. I've written dozens of such blog posts that were based on my reaction or response to something else I've read online. It's a large part of what blogging can be about for some people.

Once an author has removed the offending material, the matter is settled as far as we're concerned. While you're welcomed to do as you please with regard to reviews and such, I find that it's easy to cross the line into wanting to "teach a person a lesson." I usually don't find such behaviors gain the kind of response you were hoping for.

We have always and will continue to send DMCA take down notices when we come across this sort of behavior. This is all done (usually) behind the scenes, and we've sent out dozens over the years. We will continue to enforce the intellectual property rights of our members, as it's a part of the free service we offer to our members.

PS - I'm going to close this thread, because we have two threads talking about the same exact topic. The other thread will stay open.

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
