I've had the same issue with saowen.com copying articles off my blog (https://sighack.com https://sighack.com) onto their website and I'm glad OP called them out on it publicly.
They even have an index page with a list of all my articles, updated as I post: https://www.saowen.com/source/site/sighack_com https://www.saowen.com/source/site/sighack_com
Interestingly, they always seem to backdate the articles by a few days from my actual date of posting! I also noticed they link to my website, but with a nofollow attribute.
Completely nuts...

- mvanga 8y agoYeah that's likely the reason. It's just funny to me that such a simple hack can confuse Google into not being able to reliably pinpoint the original source.
