Wow,
One of the diarists that I read regularly (me and thousands of others), recently posted that he had encountered his writing being passed off as someone else's on another online diary. He asked his readers to respectfully express their displeasure in the fraud's guestbook.
I went to take a look and indeed saw the work that I had read previously on the original site. Quite a shock really, but what was particularly galling, was that the fraud was responding to comments made by the admirers of the work he had stolen, with comments like "well, they are MY memories".
Anyway, it was a lightning campaign and the troops of Bobby rallied and now the website that Bobby posted a link to has been wiped out. Only a cold message remains. Kablooey! ZAP! Zowie! BIFF!
Moral of the story . . .
What do you think?
