How would you even know who is using them? <br />You sound like you have a fun sense of humor. I only heard tonight about the Goddess departure. What a freak show.Cperzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09062444081488414888noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8740338215172190519.post-17218622926069899022011-04-20T22:55:41.644-05:002011-04-20T22:55:41.644-05:00I'm all for protection but I have to say I am ...I'm all for protection but I have to say I am weary of trademarking.

Really, the only way that I would blow a gasket if someone re-publishes it or uses it in a very public, commercial way under their name. Give credit, where credit is due. Still I know there are some major celebrities that are using blogs as their material.Cperzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09062444081488414888noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8740338215172190519.post-80982508990244345322011-04-20T13:18:01.758-05:002011-04-20T13:18:01.758-05:00Hi Wolfe, I hope that some of the other bloggers o...Hi Wolfe, I hope that some of the other bloggers out their see your comment on the chance they would need that information. For the most part, my stuff isn't worth much so it hasn't been a big problem. It was interesting though, to talk to the IP attorney and hear about the past cases of writers using blog fodder for commercial use.Cperzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09062444081488414888noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8740338215172190519.post-4116028410330782602011-04-20T12:57:58.397-05:002011-04-20T12:57:58.397-05:00Some of my stuff too has been cloned w/o permissio...Some of my stuff too has been cloned w/o permission.

I have used this in the past.<br />First notify the offender send them a DMCA. You can find them using the Whois (again Google it) and get there email address this way.<br /><br />If they do not respond then you send a DMCA notice to the hosting provider.<br />This is the server that shows up in the whois, it looks like NS1.yourdomain.com. Yourdomain.com being the hosting provider.<br />Once they are notified it's on their server they have to remove it or they become in violation.<br />This seems to work well.<br /><br />I hope this helps,have a great day!<br /><br />WolfWolfbernzhttp://www.blogdumps.comnoreply@blogger.com
