If You Care About Copyright, Stop Using Blog Lovin’

As long time followers of my blog and Twitter account know, copyright is a subject that I am passionate about. Some of them, like the popular Bloglovin service, claim that theyre not doing anything wrong and are in fact assisting bloggers get more direct exposure.

Bloglovin isnt helping blog writers at all. By republishing whole posts without approval theyre violating the original authors copyright. By republishing entire short articles they are getting rid of any incentive to go to the actual source of the post which negates Bloglovins claim that theyre assisting bloggers get more exposure..
Google concurs with me on this as evidenced by the truth that every time I file a DMCA takedown notification with Google they remove the upseting Bloglovin URL from their index..
I made a brief, ranting video about this Bloglovin concern. If you like, you can see it here. In any case, stop using Bloglovin to check out article and rather utilize a service like Feedly which does things right or simply visit your favorite blog sites directly..
