All content is to be considered copyrighted unless it is clearly stated that that is not the case. Providing an RSS Feed changes nothing about that.
Of course, fair use is possible, but taking content whole, changing it and then altering it to suit commercial needs goes far beyond that.
Nothing wrong with using RSS feeds, but it's best to always request permission beforehand, and changing content and linking codes is never ok.
I'm surprised there are still people in this industry who do not "get" intellectual property...
