You call him a “modern crusader’, and I’ve called him a “superhero”. The figure is right: When you observe how victims of plagiarism send out their scream of anguish to the blogosphere (“Oh! I’ve been ripped off”), and the next thing you see is a comment from Jonathan Bailey offering to help… He truly comes out the clouds offering his help out of the kindness of his heart, and his passion against the scourge of plagiarism. He won’t fight your fight for you (and he shouldn’t), but he gives you all the weapons and tells what to do, and then slaps your horse sending you out to protect what’s yours.

We need more people like him working on different fronts: Developers creating new tools against “offline browsers” (i.e. site mirror machines) and feed scrapers. We need people to take ownership for their stuff and fight back when it gets stolen. Plagiarism shouldn’t be tolerated or sponsored by anyone…

If there is anything that I an do to help anyone reading this, please send me an email and I’ll gladly help in any way that I can.

Thank you again for this extremely flattering (perhaps too flattering) post. It really leaves me speechless.
