Hi, there, I was just reading about this happening to an acquaintance here. For him to was a blog post plagarism, he sent them an email and (when he got no response) told everyone in the social media world. Sort of a public shaming approach. It did work, they attributed the post right away when word got out.
I suspect both sites (for better or worse) got some big traffic numbers out if it. Long term I don;t knwo what effect it will have. But it is a thought.
