Hackers and Plagiarists

by 32poems on February 29, 2008

No fun. Someone entered our blog without permission. Now, that is not kind! It must have been a robot, because why would someone bother with a poetry blog?

The phishing situation is why I’ve changed my blog theme 3 times in 2 days as I sort out the issue. One of the themes, I believe, helped to cause the situation. Someone may have added some nasty code to my blog theme.

Then, someone plagiarized part of my blog. He removed the content. It’s so odd that people would not steal something you wrote on paper but they will steal your web writing and then give no credit.

Why did you remove the name of the plagiarist? Just because he removed the content? He’s still GUILTY. His name came through on rss, BTW. Keep watching those poets like hawks.

I did not feel like leaving his name up. I know that if people really wanted to find it, they could see it on the 32 Poems Facebook page or in RSS. I don’t mind.
