Wouldn't that give a "double time stamp" to prove it was original work?
I was simply thinking the original blog post provides the same copyright proof, regardless of what is posted on FR afterwards.
But I am ready to learn more.
FR is honest, I dont worry so much here.
Anyone can read it. No membership required to get access to cut and paste. I have no illusions about material being "safe" here. But I just don't see that any different than a public accessible blog.
I wrote a Valentines day article a couple years back and it was stolen.*cough Yahoo, cough*
They swore blind it was coincidence. Even though all 6 points were the same and one typo (hey, I type fast) was in the article.
Copyright is a horrible mess.
