Don't plagiarize.

Story: This lady named Monica wrote an article for some website and this magazine called "Cooks Source" stole it and told her basically "too bad, if it was on the internet it is public domain"

P.S. she had one Facebook page and it was getting so overcome with people ragging on her that she had to start a second one and she claimed the first one got "hacked".

never rely on the mercy of others.

if you don't defend your work, no one else will for you.

JenC · 11-05-2010, 11:59 AM

The magazine stole writings from Martha Stewart, The Food Network and NPR and they are currently talking with lawyers about it. LOL

Um the entire internet is defending the chick. Her Facebook page is getting hammered with negative posts. You can't even keep up with it it's scrolling so fast. And someone registered her domain name and redirected it to the WikiPedia entry of "Public Domain".

Uh...it's scrolling so fast YOU can't see what's going on.

Judith Griggs is the person who stole the article. She is getting hammered.

The lady who's article was stolen is not named Judith Griggs.

Hope that was moving slow enough for you.

if you think "the Internet" and it's peeps are going to back you when you have a problem, you are sorely mistaken.

I love the internet sometimes. Nothing like a million anonymous faces fighting for justice.

are the people that are attacking her for copying someone else's work, just as angry about music and porn piracy too?

Here I thought the answer was going to be "don't spam". How'd that work out for you Jen?

US porn spammers guilty as charged
Canned by CAN-SPAM

Two men who ran a spam operation to promote pornographic websites had the book thrown at them today. A federal jury in Phoenix, Arizona convicted Jeffrey Kilbride, 41, of Venice, California and James Schaffer, 41 of Paradise Valley, Arizona of eight counts, including conspiracy, fraud, money laundering, and transportation of obscene materials.

In 2003, Kilbride and Schaffer set up a spamming operation to promote pornography sites. They earned $2m in commission from porn site operators for the traffic generated from the emails. Hard-core porn was embedded in each email, which meant that anyone who opened the email could see it.

Kilbride and Schaffer did not let the CAN-SPAM Act, which banned the distribution of multiple electronic commercial mail messages containing falsified header information, stand in their way.

When the law came into effect on Jan 1, 2004, they simply logged onto servers in Amsterdam, to make it seem like their email came from outside the US. Also, the 'from' names and email addresses were different from the 'reply to' addresses, so recipients could not identify the sender or reply to email.

In another violation of CAN-SPAM, the domain names used to send the spam were registered in the name of a "fictitious employee at a shell corporation Kilbride and Schaffer established in the Republic of Mauritius," the US Department of Justice said today.

To cap it all, the dastardly duo funneled their ill-gotten gains through the Republic of Mauritius and the Isle of Man to "further insulate themselves from detection by U.S. law enforcement".

In August, 2005 Kilbride and Schaffer were the first people charged under the CAN-SPAM Act. They face up to five years in jail for each spam and obscenity offense and a fine of up to $500,000 and up to 20 years for money laundering. They will be sentenced in September. Boy are they in trouble.

Three associates of Kilbride and Schaffer, who include housewife Jennifer Clason, 34, of Raymond, New Hampshire, have already pleaded guilty to breaching CAN-SPAM. ®

Yep that's me. I'd do it again if I could too! $30,000 in 3 months....you fuckin bet.
