Automatically add Copyright Message to your RSS / ATOM Feeds plugin

Also don’t overlook the fact that Mark did reply and this is what he said:
We will look into it, but the fact is that those sites will not stop. They are breaking terms already and they know it. Their webhosts don’t care either. Copyright can be exerted with no notice.
Following the steps that Lorelle has blogged on and that I gave you the link to above and, if necessary, hiring legal counsel and pursuing these matters in the courts is really all that we can do.

hi timethief. Thank you for getting back to me. I am not sure about a couple of items. I did not know that we could use plug-in’s in WordPress, nor do I know which plug-in to download to what section or widget. Can you be more specific with me? Thank you.
Secondly, we are all doing the best we can for today and we are all learning. Different disabilities have different limitations. Per my invisible disability, I seek clarity to compensate for my learning disability. I have empathy for and advocate for people with disabilities. Thank you for disclosing yours to me in general way. God bless you. Identification rather than comparision empowers.
Lastly, thank you for sharing what you have in your third paragraph. There is not such thing as a happy victim. As an empowered person I seek to learn. Week after week seems to be very condescending, in the tone set forth. The reason why I wanted to deal directly with Dr. Mike is so I would not have to keep asking for clarity with in the forums. I need to ask questions in several ways so that I can obtain the clarity that I need.
I am sorry that I am living up to your expectations of me timethief, but they are not my expectation for me. With that being said, thank you for your time and what you have been able to give.

We cannot as individual bloggers use plug-ins here at wordpress.com. But there is a feed copyright notice plug-in available at wordpress.org.
Knowing this, what I was suggesting is that the plug-in be installed on this wordpress.com multiuser blogging platform just like Akismet is. That way it could be activated across the whole blogging platform on every wordpress.com blog.

I am on board with you timethief. Thank you again for your time. Have a pleasant weekend.

Has there been any updates on this subject? my blog is getting blog scraped right now on every post I make, and was just curious if any progress was being made.

“There have been a lot of questions recently about how to deal with blog scrapers, and i thought it might be useful to put up a step-by-step guide for sending a DMCA notice (or not).”

Has this been resolved? Is there a way for us to post a copyright warning on our material?
-
No this has not been resolved. We can place a copyright line in every post going out on rss feeds.

Here’s an alternative that can be used on wordpress.com blogs. If you register you can get a copyright image notice for your posts and then automatically register and fingerprint every blog or podcast entry you post. http://myfreecopyright.com/

You bumped a week old thread of yours announcing that you marked it as resolved when you can very easily mark it as resolved without bumping it?

OOPS! I forgot to say thanks to all those bloggers from both wordpress.com and wordpress.org who keep hitting on this post and clicking through to my blog looking for information. I find it almost every day in my referrals. I have also received numerous emails and contact form messages on the same subject.
(1) If you have downloaded a template from wordpress.org then you can use these plugins:
(a) Angsuman’s Feed Copyrighter
Inserts copyright message in Feeds. The message is of the standard format (can be customized): Copyright © 2007 YOUR BLOG NAME. This Feed is for personal non-commercial use only.

It works by adding a customizable “digital fingerprint” to your RSS feed in posts that you select (or all posts if you wish).

timethief, you jumped the gun. We’re not quite ready to launch that feature yet, it slipped in accidentally.
-
Sorry Timethief, the copyright part of that feature isn’t quite ready for production just yet. It will go in, just not today.
-
OOPS! I’m sorry I flushed the covey early. {red faced}
But I’m also delighted with this pending Winter Solstice gift. :)
To avoid confusion would you please delete this post in the Off-Topic forum pertaining to the same thing? https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic.php?id=19236

I would also like to see this plug in. My blog is not even terribly big and even it is getting ripped off daily by splogs. I’ve even contemplated manually adding a copyright statement to the end of each blog post, but that seems like a bit of overkill.
