I was searching for one of my old posts and came across something called Forumsee which seems to be scraping and re-publishing a whole swag of Geekzone content. Right next to it's own advertising.

 

On the face of it, it would appear to be in contravention of GZ's policy on trademark and re-use of posts.

 

I strongly suspect this will be in the "more trouble than it is worth" box, but flagging it to @freitasm's attention if you want to investigate.

Spammers. Scammers. No way to get those kinds of sites down - mostly hosted by companies who won't even reply to requests for content takedown.

Yeah, I figured as much. Thought I'd better flag it to you just in case though.

Thinking about it, I wonder if the "spammers/scammers" comment will be scraped and added to their own website too?
