I have gone through this with pictures I have posted being lifted and used on other peoples new jersey real estate websites. they think that just because they are on the internet that they are free. One Realtor even went so far as to make me go to her broker with the high res versions of the pictures before she took them down. Funny thing is that if she had just been nice and asked for permission to use the pictures, I would have let her. Well I would have asked for a text link back to me but that is it.

I'm glad to see more Webmasters and bloggers taking up this issue so well. I would definitely encourage you to check out a few services though, one is Copy Alerts (copyalerts.com) and MyFreeCopyright (myfreecopyright.com). Both provide great free services, the first in detection and the second in non-repudiation. thank you again for this post and I hope it helps others!

I also think waterboarding might not be so bad for these a-holes. Glad to hear this one clown removed the copied stuff after you contacted him, but I'm sure he's ripping off other people. Anyway, thanks for letting me join your rant. I've had some stuff scraped and copied too, and it pisses me off big time! And that's just the stuff I'm aware of... arghhh. ~ Steve, aka "trade show displays" hey JR,
