Expressing Opinions

<– This is for the law firm that used my posting on heparin without my permission.

Stealing my content pisses me off. Yesterday I discovered through a comment and an email, a law firm quoted my posting on heparin by posting it on their web site. They posted a comment on my posting, linked it to their firm, and then quoted my entire posting but without the tag line, “Thank you for visiting Expressing Opinions.”

I guess the attorneys for that firm missed the classes on copyright and fair use. Here are a couple of very good resources on fair use and copyright from Purdue University.

• Copyright Basics
• Fair Use Analysis
