Bryght stealing Website Content

Submitted by on 11 April, 2018 – 4:32 am

So there was a little spat on Twitter about UrbanVancouver (owned and operated by Bryght) which is an blog aggregator, normally these work out great. This blog is included in a few like the Open Wiki Blog Planet, the difference is that we opted in to this aggregator. Local radio host Buzz Bishops blog entire archive was taken and posted on Urban Vancouver without his permission.

Edit: Looks like there are a few more people finding their stuff on UV that never approved it.

Another Edit: Buzz has posted about it here.

Why are we posting this?  We want UV to change its method of Opt-Out to totally Opt-In.
