Hi Robin,

You’re another vote for “copyright notices” are not necessary.

I’m finding it interesting how each blogger relates to this subject. Then there’s Hunter, who will steal back what the scrapers stole from him.

I agree with Chase – adding copyright notices and so on do nothing – your stuff is covered as much as it can be by putting your name on it.

Posting your creations to yourself in the mail (or doing anything else) would only be of any use if you are taking the filthy robbers to court – is a blogger or musician really going to do that? (And even then, my understanding is that it would be useless as evidence – I wonder if there are any precedents.)

@Hunter – ha ha that’s funny

@ John – that is a great point. I heard of authors who do the posting thing too.

@ JoLynn – thank you. I’m glad you came over here. I’m glad you had success closing them down. I never really thought about it but I guess many of the scrapers are using blogspot. Serves them right.

@ Hunter – I love your idea of scraping the content back.
