Blog Rip-offs!

Sites that repost content are nothing new. However, this latest, reported by Om and Andy, is really over the top. A company called XB 90 media is lifting posts out of RSS Feeds, and reposting them whole without attribution. They’re monetizing the site with Google Adsense. It’s such a laughable job that they’ve even preserved the original poster’s categories.

Adsense should cut these guys off before they ruin the program for all legitimate users.
