I just don't understand people that put up RSS feeds then get pissed when people use them! That's the entire point.
All we ask is that people leave the backlinks intact. You want to relink keywords? Fine!

Yep. You see, this is the way I see it too. If you offer syndication of your rss, then you are implying that you consent to it being used. Of course, you can say "Well, I left my house door open, so am I consenting to theft of my property," but this does not logically apply to blogging. Rss is am element of blogs that defines them.
