Update on Discovery Educator Network scraping my content…

August 7th, 2008 Comments Posted in Announcements, Updates
Discovery Channel logo used from early 2000 to...IImage via Wikipedia

I posted earlier today about the Discovery Educator Network scraping my content… I also took the initiative to email Steve Dembo at discovery who is in charge of the network. He has issued an apology, and removed the post in question.

I’d like to poll my readers:

Should I pursue a legal suit against Heather Sullivan?

Whether the content is still accessible or not, she still stole it. I’m not going to pursue anything against the Discovery Network, because it’s hardly their fault, but still I think someone should pay, and that I should be compensated. Anyhow I guess the case is closed for now, unless any lawyers think they can win a case against Heather Sullivan, if so contact me for a 50/50 split.

Here’s the email I received from Steve Dembo at Discovery Educator Network:

UPDATE: Steve Dembo’s Email Screenshot Image has been removed, Steve emailed me back and apparently doesn’t like his email being posted, so I complied at his request.

I’m still upset about this issue, but I’m just going to let it go and move on to blogging about stuff that really matters to me…

Note: He also requested the removal of the Discovery channel logo, but as the image is from Wikipedia, and qualifies as fair use, I have the right to use it, and unless someone from Discovery wants to pay me to remove it, it shall remain.

This Topic is now Officially closed and I’m done blogging about it. Let’s Move On…
