If You Care About Copyright, Stop Using Blog Lovin’

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

Bloglovin isnt assisting blog writers at all. By republishing entire posts without consent theyre violating the original authors copyright. By republishing whole articles they are getting rid of any incentive to check out the real source of the article which negates Bloglovins claim that theyre helping blog writers get more direct exposure..
Google agrees with me on this as evidenced by the reality that whenever I submit a DMCA takedown notification with Google they remove the offending Bloglovin URL from their index..
I made a short, ranting video about this Bloglovin concern. You can see it here if you like. In either case, stop using Bloglovin to read article and rather utilize a service like Feedly which does things right or just visit your favorite blog sites straight..
