If You Care About Copyright, Stop Using Blog Lovin’

As long time fans of my blog site and Twitter account understand, copyright is a subject that I am enthusiastic about. Thats mainly due to the quantity of websites that take my work on a daily basis. Some of them, like the popular Bloglovin service, claim that theyre not doing anything incorrect and are in fact helping blog writers get more direct exposure. Both of those claims are false..

Bloglovin isnt assisting bloggers at all. By republishing whole short articles without permission theyre breaching the initial authors copyright. By republishing entire articles they are getting rid of any reward to go to the real source of the article which negates Bloglovins claim that theyre assisting blog writers get more exposure..
Google agrees with me on this as evidenced by the fact that each time I submit a DMCA takedown notification with Google they get rid of the upseting Bloglovin URL from their index..
I made a brief, ranting video about this Bloglovin issue. You can watch it here if you like. In either case, stop using Bloglovin to check out post and rather use a service like Feedly which does things best or simply visit your preferred blogs straight..
