As I wrote in a previous post, "Attributions and Plagiarism", someone had ripped of my "HOWTO - Limiting Access to TCP-wrapped Services with hosts.allow" article and posted it on their site. I was trying to find a way to contact the blog owner and got a link to a DMCA takedown form for Blogger. Even though I do not like how the DMCA came into being, nor do I think it is the way to truly handle copyright infringement and to stop piracy, it was the only method of trying to complain about the blog post. So I submitted a DMCA takedown request to Blogger several weeks ago and, today, received an e-mail stating that Blogger had removed the infringing post. I just wanted to say that I'm glad that Blogger takes copyright infringement seriously and that I appreciate the action that they took. |
