- kalleboo 4y agoIt's interesting how nearly all these links are about the TV signal hijacking, and not the original show/character itself. I guess it goes to show what captures the imagination.
- DamnInteresting 4y agoOof, the allthatsinteresting.com writeup (2021) is awfully similar to my telling of the incident (2007)[1]. Emphasis on awful. There are too many lazy "authors" out there willing to flirt with plagiarism in the name of generating content. And then Google rewards them for having newer content. Sigh.

- mikeodds 4y agoClose enough that you might be able to submit a copyright claim to Google? https://iloveseo.com/seo/google/how-to-report-copied-content-to-google/ https://iloveseo.com/seo/google/how-to-report-copied-content... As a fan of your site I’d prefer to find the original high quality content rather than the ripped off material when I Google for an article.
