If You Care About Copyright, Stop Using Blog Lovin’

As long time followers of my blog site and Twitter account understand, copyright is a subject that I am passionate about. Thats largely due to the quantity of websites that steal my deal with an everyday basis. A few of them, like the popular Bloglovin service, claim that theyre not doing anything wrong and are really helping bloggers get more exposure. Both of those claims are false..

Bloglovin isnt assisting bloggers at all. By republishing entire articles without permission theyre breaching the original authors copyright. By republishing entire short articles they are eliminating any incentive to visit the actual source of the article which negates Bloglovins claim that theyre assisting blog writers get more exposure..
Google concurs with me on this as evidenced by the reality that every time I submit a DMCA takedown notification with Google they remove the offending Bloglovin URL from their index..
I made a brief, ranting video about this Bloglovin issue. If you like, you can see it here. Either method, stop using Bloglovin to read article and rather use a service like Feedly which does things ideal or just visit your favorite blog sites directly..
