How do copyright thieves justify their dirty deeds to steal other author’s work? One accomplished copywriter recently damned them on a major online article Blog for authors. She blasted these thieves who steal other people’s works and then put them on their websites or put their name on the articles, stories or ebooks and use them for their own online content. Indeed, I agree and have had the same thoughts. In a way I suppose these copyright infringement thieves might argue that they are giving out information free online (even though they are often stealing it). These copyright thieves steal other author’s articles and replay it on their websites, without giving them credit. In a way this helps get information out to the world and in some ways it junks up the Internet as people searching key words keep getting the same article over and over again, under different author names or no name, in fact no one knows who wrote it or why? The person who stole it may not even remember where they lifted it from.
I believe Google is doing some good for the world and care about making sure the search results are relevant yet, these copyright thieves often do so to the detriment of the Internet user. Google now has an informational TV program and their own channel on DirectTV broken into quick 7-minute segments, about the maximum allowable for the modern human brain to maintain attention to? (forget I said that!). But isn’t that actually part of the issue? These folks who steal other author’s articles are lazy and will not do their own work, yet isn’t that becoming the norm? Kids cheat on term papers, business people cheat on resumes and the problems of meteocrity are so ramped that no one knows where to start to keep humans from cheating?
Google owns the search engine and is in business to make money. They benefit for pay per click ads. Unfortunately everyone has jumped onto the bandwagon setting up sites, which pay per click, which are search engine optimized. Because of this two things happen, eventually people ignore them and secondly they leave a site when they see the AdSense type side bars or become skeptical of the information immediately and give it a once over but in their mind start their elimination process of the site as relevant and prepare to dust the site and click out. Many of the people putting up these sites are doing so simply to make a quick buck, but in doing so they steal articles and infringe on author’s copyright, without giving credit to the author or allowing them the benefits of their own work. Think on this, it is a real problem.
