Well, I had been thinking of posting on this very issue, but I was afraid it would be too "local interest."

According to my local professional organization, "The appropriate way to use Review-Journal editorial material on a web site is to post only the headline, the first paragraph of the story and a link to the original story. It is never appropriate to reuse all or substantially all of the Review-Journal's editorial copy on a website or log." Well, the interesting shit is never in the *first* paragraph, but I rarely quote more than that unless I am specifically refuting something, and I always always every freaking time link to the source. Grad school habits die hard and it turns out that's a good thing.

I'll paraphrase what I said on Reddit last night: Don't repost! Quote and link! Then you will have no trouble with this [insert noun].

I have a better way: Don't link to the fuckers. Don't quote them. Find another source.

They are not doing this to guard their copyrights. They are doing this as a quick way to harvest a few thousand dollars from everyone they sue.

They are vultures, vermin, the true scum of the Earth.

This is the true problem with these greedy fuckers. They never have enough. They never try to create anything. They only suck. So that's financial assholes and lawyers? Are there any others? And how do we tell the good from the bad?
And the way to fix this? Just what you said. Do not link, quote, reference anything they do. Give them no chance to screw with you. Next we should all show where our links go so that people can make an informed choice not to click and avoid giving the bastards another hit.
