Hear about this on Friday’s Buzz Out Loud.  Interesting story.  I realise this is cyberbullying, but reading Judith Griggs response, I almost want to join in.  I’ve had my copyright material stolen off the web myself, and this attitude of “the web is public domain” just burns me.

On top of that, how else will Monica Gaudio get justice?  Look, I know Gaudio isn’t doing this – the 4chan crowd is in it for the LOLz.  But as others have pointed out, the legal costs for chasing a copyright case are prohibitively expensive.  If it weren’t for the 4chan crowd, Griggs would never have had her “pound of flesh” exacted from her.

Will Ms. Griggs and Crook Source, er  Cook Source learn?  I doubt it.

(Here’s another article about the story: The Cook Source Scandal: How a magazine profits on theft.)

It’s that time of year again for these types of lists.  Here’s a list from the UK’s The Guardian.

Any comments?
