If You Care About Copyright, Stop Using Blog Lovin’

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

Bloglovin isnt helping blog writers at all. By republishing entire articles without permission theyre breaching the original authors copyright. By republishing entire articles they are eliminating any incentive to check out the real source of the article which negates Bloglovins claim that theyre helping blog writers get more exposure..
Google agrees with me on this as evidenced by the fact that every time I file a DMCA takedown notification with Google they get rid of the angering Bloglovin URL from their index..
I made a short, ranting video about this Bloglovin problem. If you like, you can view it here. Either way, stop using Bloglovin to check out post and instead utilize a service like Feedly which does things best or just visit your preferred blogs directly..
