Plagiarism, Alive and Flourishing

Yesterday I was made aware of my content being copied to another site without my permission. I was made aware by another blogger who discovered his content too was being stolen. My initial angry reaction has been replaced by concern for someone who is too lazy or inept to write their own content. The innate nature of blogging is self expression. The thief who steals content is subverting his own self expression. The inability to express one self must be so debilitating that they are forced to steal content from others. Therefore rather than anger I will take pity on the poor soul who suffers from a complete lack of creativity and self expression when they steal words from others. Consider therapy and perhaps Dale Carnegie courses to build your self esteem to the point where you too can take advantage of the realm of blogging, standing on your own and expressing yourself rather than mimic others self expression.
