What's irritating is the "Discussions" section on your front page.
It makes it seem as though the user is commenting on your site; not that you're scraping it off of another site.
- zeedotme 17y agoI understand what you're saying but you gotta appreciate it's rather difficult to get round. Plus, I still feel it's discussion based on our content and rather reasonable to have there.
- icey 17y agoSo because someone talks about what you've written you feel it gives you license to do as you please with THEIR content (i.e. their comments)? By that logic, you give Google, Microsoft and everyone else you write about permission to reprint your content. That can't be your intention, can it? I'm saying that it looks misleading the way you have it on your page. I don't really care one way or the other, I'm just telling you what it looks like.
- sho 17y ago"I still feel it's discussion based on our content and rather reasonable to have there" By that logic, any and all of the companies you discuss on your site have the right to republish anything you write, since it's "based on their content" (press releases/announcements). Is that "rather reasonable" as well?
