Scraped without credit

[ColinWright]

I submitted an article here:

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12998899

Idly I did a search for some of the text, and this popped up:

http://www.itdadao.com/articles/c22a774394p0.html

Yes, someone has scrapped the text, copied the images, and put the entire text up, wholesale, without credit.

Should I be surprised?

(I've not added clickable links in the comments because I don't want to give them the traffic.)

If you want to take action against this scraper, just report them to Google for copyright violation. Google will likely shut off their advertising revenue.

Thanks for your reply - useful idea. However, going through their process it appears that I need to have a Google account. I don't have one, and don't want one.

I can find no way to proceed.
