YW has a blog! (Sort of)

Has anyone else run into this blog via google searches for Yaris?

Every post is just posts from YW that contained pictures reposted. :confused:

Etc etc, there's tons of reposted posts from here from members, straight copy and paste jobs.

I've reported it already, since it's possible the blog is getting revenue from the Google Ads on the page, but feel free to back up my report with your own to the site host. :help:

Yeah, they probably are. When you sign up for adsense , you have to provide a name, etc.

How do you report it? I kinda don't like it when people use my pictures without me knowing (unless I "know" you). I guess I could be flattered, but if they're making money off of it like you said, where's my share? lol

To report it, use the google feature "report" on top of the blog.
That'll give you several choices as to why you are reporting
The most appropriate is probably "copyright violation"

The photos from Pavel are clearly marked "copyright" with his name on it and that means you can't repost without permission.

This may just be some kid who really loves the Yaris and posts everything he / she finds on the Net. ??

^ I thought about that too, but the blog consists of NOTHING other than copied YW posts with pictures and then a bunch of search keywords at the top and Google ads. So that's why I was leaning to ad spam revenue.

[tomato]

yeah, and wouldn't that person want to have a profile that says "hey, I'm a Toyota enthusiast" or something like that?

before i became computer intelligent(?) i did the same, but i posted a short entry for my love of the stuff with the pictures..

I will report when i get back home from work.
