RSS Copyright Protection from Plagiarism Today

To top off this portion of the Content Theft coverage, take note of this really important point from Plagiarism Today.

Clip ==> “Simply put, RSS feeds are designed to be used. They are created to be read. However, when lawyers aren’t completely certain where the line between personal and commercial use is drawn, we can’t expect laypeople to immediately understand it.

Thoughts ==>That said, my mother always told me that if I should always ask before using someone else’s stuff. I’m pretty sure that applies here – if you’re smart enough to redisplay my feed, you’re smart enough to ask me what’s okay and what’s not.

Plagiarism Today brings many really interesting viewpoints and cautions against some comment methods being used to thwart plagiarists online. I’d say the site warrants feed subscription.
