resigned myself to passive tolerance of splogs — it irks me but I have yet
to act by tracking down the splogger or contacting their advertisers.
But my passive acceptance doesn’t mean I advocate the practice.

I publish under the loosely defined "copyleft" license. You can take my content, change it around/alter it, republish it exactly as it is - whatever the hell you want. But you have to publish THAT content under the copyleft license too. If it's web based I ask for a no-nofollow link back to the original, but even then I don't really bother to check. <br><br>People who scrape every single post I write tend to frustrate me, as I consider that just a lazy way to try and make a buck. But most of those splogs are here today gone tomorrow, as they're always scrapping from people who get really bent out of shape about it, and are forced down.
