Kim Suffers Her First Blatant Infringement of Copyright...
The irony.
I have a blog about copyright. On it, I put freely available, fairly expert (if I do say so myself) commentary on IP matters. I do that as a public good - I'm paid from the public purse after all.
I allow non-commercial reproduction with attribution.
So when I see an entire post, copied verbatim, without attribution, on a commercial site, I admit, it just makes me cross. Unethical, unnecessary behaviour indeed.
UPDATE: In response to my complaint, the relevant site has removed the post. In response, I have removed their name from this post. The copying, of course, unethical behaviour in my view, but I am glad they have responded quickly to my rather strong complaint!
