[Seattle-editorial] Brain Damage

[anarch3m]

except as a linked article on the copywright source website, with just enough text to entice our readers.

or

fair use, which usually means excerpts and commentary, not the entire text.

I used to do letters:  " your article is posted here <<url>>.  Did you post, Do you know its there? Do you mind?"

Some were flattered.  said great, but givve the credits.  Some wanted $$$$$$$$$$$$$$

Sea Editorial group said:  "leave it alone, we don't want to get in trouble!"  Like it was better to wait till they found out the bad way?

I AGREE that lazy reposts in totality should be pulled.  Its like the stupid FRiends at yahoo that clogs the Global Ed Box!  Spam
