If You Care About Copyright, Stop Using Blog Lovin’

As very long time followers of my blog and Twitter account understand, copyright is a topic that I am passionate about. Thats largely due to the amount of sites that take my deal with a daily basis. A few of them, like the popular Bloglovin service, claim that theyre not doing anything wrong and are really helping blog writers get more exposure. Both of those claims are incorrect..

Bloglovin isnt helping blog writers at all. By republishing entire short articles without permission theyre breaking the initial authors copyright. By republishing entire short articles they are eliminating any incentive to visit 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 truth that every time I file a DMCA takedown notice 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. In either case, stop using Bloglovin to check out article and instead utilize a service like Feedly which does things right or simply visit your preferred blog sites straight..
