I might have a few more options to affect how much can be easily copied with self hosting.<br /><br />As JB wrote it might help to change the RSS feed to not show the entire post. I hate that format personally but I'll consider doing it if the other site isn't taken down.Stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14230364057800484763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9240097.post-4664126398947338312014-05-13T06:56:19.849-07:002014-05-13T06:56:19.849-07:00Would going away from Blogger to a self-hosted Wor...Would going away from Blogger to a self-hosted Wordpress site help?daveedwardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16436110671034646569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9240097.post-31906587704788316722014-05-13T06:10:52.983-07:002014-05-13T06:10:52.983-07:00Steve,

It was an exact copy down to names and images of our family.<br />I filed a DMCA case about it. Gave them a clear evidence (only in writting) and their site was terminated. <br />It was completely free for me to file this by the way.<br /><br />On a side note, we also had to turn the RSS feed from our site to NOT show the entire post. Many tools will copy and paste your posts into their site just by using a RSS script. We did want to continue have an RSS feed but that's up to you. (I hope you continue to provide and RSS feed)<br /><br />Anyways, it was a lot more stress than it really turned out to be as the evidence was pretty irrefutable. Hope that helps.JBnoreply@blogger.com
