I hate plagiarism. I hate it when people don’t acknowledge the sources. I hate when people just copy paste stuff. I hate it more when they don’t respond to emails or comments. One guy called Murali Venkatesh stole 3 of my posts. He is actually using some RSS aggregator so accidentally he posted a posts of mine with pictures which I had hosted on my blog. Technorati detected it and hence I came to know about this dude. I left a comment on his blog but he deleted that. Here are those stolen posts
1. World Cup Cricket 2007 pictures
3. Abhishek Aishwarya wedding pictures
Not just my blog, but he seems to have copied content from other blogs also. His post Who is Sanjaya-Bye Sanjaya is directly copied from Mutiny (Actually there are a lot more from this blog). Another post is copied from TheBrain Chimney . He even plagiarized from Kartik’s blog. Here is one shamelessly taken from Silentbits. Well the list is endless and I wonder what actions could be taken against such plagiarism. I will report this to google adsense but I not exactly hopeful of a prompt response.

It seems like that guy doesn’t have any content of his own?
But he will get some back links from your blog 
Anyway this post will help readers identify this.
I also hate these type of things but there isnt much that can be done about it .
Good that you found out. Technorati rocks!
Dude,thanks for bringing this to our notice.
I have posted a comment on his blog and let us see what his response is.

Harsha,
He deleted your comment as he deleted my previous comment.
There is very little we can do about it except condemning it.
What did he stolen
If they slit their wrist

twist in the life
of incorrigible plagiarist
who shamelessly cut copy paste
burglarizing contents ..

on the cybernet
that we would not want
to co exist
like opal mehta
who hissed kissed and missed
so shaarique we too add
the plagiarist to
our blacklist
firoze shakir
