Site Jacking and the DMCA
Two days ago I was performing a rather dull set of SEO experiments when
I noticed something very disturbing. While testing Google’s SERPs
against keyword phrases inserted into the Metamend Facebook profile,
I found a Chinese SEO company had completely stolen the Metamend
source-code, images and all. The Chinese firm, Okwoo.com had slightly
altered and translated the site-text into a Chinese language but had
left blog postings (many of which I wrote) in the English language they
were originally written in. It’s called site jacking and it happens
more often than a reasonable person might realize.
