Can we disable reblogging?
-
Dear WordPress,
We don’t all like to reblog. I’m all for sharing things we enjoy. But reblogging, especially when all the reblogger posts is reblogged material, is lazy, and essentially plagiarism. My blog is a collection of my photography. It is designed to be public. If it’s private, I might as well shut it down or move to another platform. Liking or sharing a snippet of my blog to drive traffic to me is fine and dandy. But the ability to reblog my entire blog is unacceptable.
Reblogging needs to be an opt in/out option.
The reblog I have issue with is here.[…]
The majority of this blog is reblogs.
Make it stop.
Thanks,
Daniel

Hi there,
It’s not possible to turn reblogging off without setting your blog to private.
Reblogging exists as a feature to help bring traffic to your blog, as reblogged posts include a link back to your site.
