Particularly the America piece, which I find all over the net. When I contact the people responsible I often get "Well, it was on the internet, so I can do what I want with it, D00D! LOL!" Then I have to get all soggy and hard to light. I did allow several sites to repost America, after they asked for permission and gave me proper credit, they benefited and so did I and I'm happy to share my stuff with them in the future, particularly the Mudflats blog and the ObamaDiary Site. <br /><br />Recently, some college dipshit from Tulane swiped the previous humor article and posted it to group generated political site. Not only did he repost it, but he added pictures to it so as to alter the message into anti Obama screed. The pictures, I might add, were stolen from elsewhere on the net, and then childishly photoshopped. Then the guy had the audacity to email and let me know that I could buy the pictures from him and post them on my site. Head. Desk. Thump. He still doesn't seem to understand copyright or the creation of original material or the fact that he's just fucking stealing from other people, despite apparently being a student at a top law school. If I was his folks, I'd ask for my money back. <br /><br />This happens to me more and more, a famous conservative site swiped my piece on the Alaska Native Guard, chopped out the parts they didn't like and turned it into an anti-liberal, anti-obama, pro-Sarah Palin piece and made it look like I'd written it, thereby using my military and Alaskan background to lend authority to their site. Fuckers. I had to threaten to sue them to get them to take it down, and then they were seriously obnoxious about it. And they make money from their site in advertising revenue, my article (illegally altered though it was) drew traffic to their site and therefore money into their pocket, none of which was offered to me for my work. That's stealing.<br /><br />And people keep asking if they need permission to post a link or a quote or to share on Facebook or whatever.<br /><br />I've been meaning to put this up for a while now, so that I can just refer people to it when necessaryJim Wrighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11259550121437562338noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8243351006478134285.post-69599802311791680732011-08-01T11:33:09.132-05:002011-08-01T11:33:09.132-05:00I think I saw what may have prompted this new Rulz...I think I saw what may have prompted this new Rulz thing.

Such restrictions are, shall we say, confining and encumbering, especially to those of us who do best job of exposing our inner selves when we are free to let ourselves swing and enjoy the fresh breeze of freedom upon our nether regions, dangling notions before our peers or swinging a freewheeling stream of thought hither and yon, or even just taking a wild piss at an argument (for that matter).<br /><br />Loosely and unrestrainedly, <br />R.
