Hey, Quit whining would be a good start - And accept that scraper sites make the publisher, google, and the advertiser money. I mean no offence, but this is old news. People keep finding excuses to moan about these sites. C.K.

True, this is nothing new. But should we be happy that someone steals our content and makes money off of it? Or that pages with valuable content lose out in the SERPs to pages of nonsense that are stuffed with keywords? In the long run, the web would be better if originality, honesty and quality are rewarded. In the short run, people can make money by stealing eyeballs (and that will always be true to a degree), but I look forward to SE updates that banish such idiocy to the sandboxes of Hades. I prefer to meet people's needs, not game the system.
