This is a re-post from February, but still very much applicable. I DO NOT CARE WHAT SITE YOU WRITE FOR.
One more time: Stop stealing our work
It has come to my attention that some sites have been stealing the content from here at Mocking the Draft. We put a lot of work into our very in-depth scouting reports. It is safe to say that you won’t find scouting reports this detailed and free anywhere else.
As some of you know, we are doing a scouting report share this season with newerascouting.com, which is a site I previously helped run. So if you’re taking content from here, you’re taking content from there. This is not cool.
Although the works at our sites are free, it is not in the public domain. If sites continue to do this, there will be no hesitation to turn it into a legal matter. It does not matter if you’re posting our work on your site or if a message board user is re-posting content in your message board. You will be held culpable.
If you are still too dumb to understand what I am saying, you can also find plenty about intellectual property law online.
If you are questioning yourself about this, you are probably doing something wrong. You should probably stop.
Readers: If you happen to notice someone running our content on another site, you can email me. You can also expose these pathetic fools in the comments here.
So, what does that mean? Basically, it means if you read it here, don’t copy and paste it elsewhere. I don’t care if you say where you got it. That does not mean it’s right. Again, I don’t care what site you’re writing for – whether it’s an SB Nation site or not.
