Fuck Your Index Site

I know it was a nothing post anyway, one simply linking someone else's post, in fact, but all the same I just loathe things like this. Anyone know how to opt out of it? I mean, if I'd wanted my shit to appear somewhere besides here, I'd have signed up for Pajamas Media*.


*Not really.

I dunno. Why loathe? I mean besides ending up above Ace of Spades, which well i have looked and then i had to go find a surgeon to replace my eyeballs so you know, not REAL familiar, but anyway.

The problem is, they took the WHOLE post. All of it. Like I said, it ain't one with scads of original content anyway, but there's seemingly nothing to stop them doing it with one later that does contain original work, and call me proprietary, but I'm agin' that.

Taking the whole post like that, even giving you credit, does not fall under "fair use" of the copyright law.

You could point that out, or get one of the lawyers in the Cotillion (are you still a member?) to do so. There are lawyers in the Cotillion, aren't there?

Don't know what copyright you have listed on the site - haven't looked, but I would put something up.

They also have a place to send feedback, so you could just let them know nicely.....
