It seems the Bitacle Saga continues. Val has done a great post on her blog on what you can do to prevent this. One of her subscribers, Owen has written a funny script that does the following (writes that the content is copied and stolen rather than the real content):
I hope he’ll publish it soon =)
More and more bloggers have written about it:
Shel is tracking down the guy who created Bitacle…
Kevin is contacting the CEO of Netvibes…
Val is posting ways to prevent them …
Allan is throwing Bitacle into the 8th Circle of hell…
Jeremiah is pondering if this imitation is a form of flattery…
Plain Jane Mom is feeling creeped out…
…and some German blogs are saying something, and it seems like they aren’t too happy (even though I cant read German

As a matter of fact, I have posted a script! It’s useful for sploggers besides Bitacle, too. I wrote a post about it. Let’s fight back, eh?

hi hollyster… regarding the lack of criticism in the spanish speaking blogosphere; until yesterday you couldnt find a single post regarding them except something like “well.. theyre something like netvibes or so”.
I think the problem was that no one had the will to question a “spanish web developer” maybe for empathy or who knows… no one dare to day something till yesterday or today.
Interesting enough.. you can find a lot of complaints today
And you can add the fact that english speaking blogosphere is more… jealous? of their content that spanish speaking people is
What a shame. This is one of the reasons i wrote past year: most people, bloggers, do not read the licences. Even the consumers do not care about. Now, your content is copied, modified and selled in an unfair way. I don’t want to say it’s CC problem, it’s the users.
Choose the right licence. Read it and expose it.
