DanCole42 Posted November 5, 2010 Share Posted November 5, 2010 Few things give me more faith in the power of the Internet and the inherent goodness in people than a thriving dose of well-deserved vigilante justice!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lperry Posted November 5, 2010 Share Posted November 5, 2010 On the other hand, if this type of public humiliation occurred every time one of my students lifted something from the internet and tried to pass it off as original, well, it might not be a bad thing. I see a class action suit brewing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC Horoscope Posted November 5, 2010 Share Posted November 5, 2010 I have a feeling the editor of Cooks Source doesn't know that her SpaceFace page is being flooded with comments, some of them funny, some of them maybe overboard. If I were her I would have tried to do something about that. After having made a sincere apology and a donation to the author. I picture the Cooks Source being floored with surprise. Anyway, her comments may have set the cause of Public Domain and Fair Use back a few years! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tweaked Posted November 9, 2010 Share Posted November 9, 2010 sadly this extends beyond food writing, many artists post high resolution images of their artwork online and people have been known to swipe these images and pass them off as their own, esp. for images that are reproduced for silkscreening, t-shirts, posters, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
