"all of porn" site is stealing stories

[DerelictionOfSanity]

I found one of my stories stolen on eight seperate URLs all under the "all of porn" umbrella site. Others should try googling their stories as the site is engineered so that stories display seemingly at random rather than allowing users to browse through them. So far, the ones I've seen are gay male stories.

Here are the Urls which have my story listed, you might want to check related links for your stories and contact Laurel if you find them.

*bump*

Well, my story is still up and I haven't heard back from Laurel. Does anyone have any advice on dealing with this?

Unfortunately this is one of the unpleasant things that happen when stories are posted for free on the Internet. I don't know anything that can be done about it really. They could always say that you stole your story from them.

Of course, someone could also steal a published work. All he/she would have to do is buy it and then push it to a different publisher using a different author name. That is why a published author should register all of their published work with The Library of Congress. it can be an annoyance, but possibly worth the effort in the long run.

Some of the thievery of stories is an entirely internet thing. One visits the offending site and no trace of them can be seen. The stories, or in some cases, snippets of them, exist in the file which generates the page, as words, in order that search engines may see the words. Keyword searches about any random thing turn up sex sites for that reason. In order to stuff the page with keywords, the authors of the pages lift text from various sources. One is not violating copyright, even, if the quotation is brief enough.

As far as what you can do about it, have a look at this thread:

Stuff of mine gets stolen all the time.

My solution is dont post your best material on-line.

Well, I won't deny that it would work, but it's not my favourite solution.
