My Posts Have Been Copied Without Proper Attribution
Tags: TagEdge
I just found the recent TagEdge’s posts have been copied without proper attribution, as shown in the below. While I worked as a Program Coordinator for some postgraduate programs some times ago, for this kind of behavior, it is a serious plagiarism and it’s more than enough for a Business School to take action on a student. However, now I serve as an author for TagEdge, I can’t do much about it.
TechCrunch, a blog that I respect and religiously read every day, among some several other technology blogs, has posted a post pertaining to this issue. They called it spam blogs, or splogs, that indiscriminately take entire posts from other blogs and present them as their own.
Take a look on the below picture, they even don’t mention from which site they syndicated my content and the images, neither with my TagEdge’s links on there nor any acknowledgement of the source of the posts. The only difference is the actual date of the posts that I posted in comparison to this splog.
I rather enjoy reading a blog that I find the mastery of language of the author was poor but the content was originally written by the author herself (since my English grammar also not good). However, I definitely will not visit this kind of splogs.
