Who would bother to steal my stuff?
I'm very interested to see how Myspace responds to the letter below sent to their copyright agent. Will they enforce their terms and conditions? Will this Chad Ronning fellow stop stealing my material? Will the 4 people who read his site wonder where all his blog entries went?
I'll let you know if I get a response.

That was fast, they already seem to be gone.
I'm constantly finding pictures from my blog on MySpace. I do a monthly search through all of the entry portals, and you would not believe the number of preteen girls who want shoddily photoshopped valentine's day cards as their backgrounds. It's simply mind boggling.
can you send angry e-mails to this person please emily.olive@med.navy.mil
