In the course of updating, I have found a few people that have Plagarized this site.They have copied entire sections of my site, including my personal comments, and posted it on their sites. They then claimed the work as their own.
Personally, I feel it is stealing, and not at all cool.
With the changes made on this update, they no longer match exactly, but I'm sure you can see the plagarism that has occured at
Feykin Fashions. Shana at Feykin Fashions is at: shana@fekin.org.
She also didn't bother responding to my email when I requested that she change her pages, or credit her source.
Another direct copier is http://www.saqra.net/do-it-yourself.html, who copied my entire page here (Prior to update). They can be emailed at sagra@sagra.net
Another nice one is Party-Oz who also copied huge chunks of my site(here),with my comments, and claimed it as their own work. When I contacted them via their web form, they then added a note at the top of 1 of the copied pages
to the effect of " links on these pages were contributed from " Milieux. Bull. I didn't contribute, and I asked them to recode, reformat, and remove my comments on the links. Milieux was plagarized. Again.
Personally, I also would never do business with folks with these sorts of ethics.
Just my rant, sorry if I offended any of you regular visitors out there! If any of you feel as strongly about this as I do, I would really appreciate it if you would let the parties involved know! Thanks everyone for your support over the years. Milieux has been on the web for 11 years now!
