Hmm, so I’m new to blogging and found your article to be interesting and informtive. I decided to google for one of your fingerprint examples just to see if this site would come up. For some reason, a different site came up instead as the sole search result. It seems to be some kind of a wiki, but it looks like that post was copy/pasted without any mention of you as the original author.

I think Fingerprint Detecting Content plug-in is a good idea, it makes life harder for content thefts

@Alex Anderson:

Well, not exactly. I explained this technique in What Do You Do When Someone Steals Your Content and Finding Stolen Content and Copyright Infringements, among other techniques, but just because it’s not indexed in Google doesn’t mean that it isn’t getting found elsewhere.

And it does not make copyright violations right. Google isn’t the end all and be all.

One way that you can find where or how your content is being used online is to type one or 2 of your unique phrases “in quotes” into google and see what comes up. If you find other sites that are indexed with your content - content them and say “NO NO”!

If your content doesn’t show up - it means that it’s not indexed in Google and won’t be found (or read) by anyone via Google anyway.

@Scott Ficek:

I don’t understand. It adds the “code” automatically. Any post grabbed through feeds gets the “code” injected into the feed. If they are getting your content otherwise, like manual copy and paste, this Plugin won’t work.

I love the idea and plug-in, but will never remember to add the code to each post (or want to go back and add it to old posts). What about adding the necessary code to a plug-in that automatically adds code to each post such as the HitTail Plugin?
