04/26: Global Grind is Ripping Our Content
I just wanted to highlight an article I published today on my personal blog, about the
unethical practices that are occurring over at Global Grind, a well funded start up backed by Russell Simmons.
In short, they are copying content from this site, and others, small and large. MTV, BET, the Boston Globe and more. In the article, I detailed what they are doing, how it all works and why it needs to stop.
If you write at a publication in the entertainment space, or any online publication, really, you should be mindful of these practices and take steps to stop them, in order to protect your content and your operation. For more details, please
check out the post.
