Syndication?
-
A blog that lifted an entire post from my site says that we have, by using WordPress, granted you permission to syndicate our material, and things we write are automatically uploaded in various other sites. Is this true? Is there some way to protect myself against this? Thanks for any insight.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

They are a lying sack of you know what and thieves also – you did not grant anyone to steal an entire Post – the license is not even close to that – your material is not automatically uploaded to other sites – the license grants WordPress.COM – not the thieves the right to display your material – if that right was not there I would not be able to read your blog from anywhere in the world –
the other site are thieves – see below for what to do
