Not in the least, to either of your questions. That's not flattery -- that's thievery. Worse, if somebody gets ripped off and wrongly accuses you, it could be a financial/legal mess even though you're innocent.

Ward, I, too, have been annoyed by folks copying-&-pasting my content. I know a couple of *individuals* who've actually taken my content--egad!--as their own. Plagiarism is the highest form of flattery, eh?

However, misrepresenting content such as you have now described does indeed take things to a new level--a very low level. I endorse your actions.

And I hope you don't mind if I plagiarize the idea. ;-)

I don't think you are wrong at all for doing what you are doing. Unless you gave them permission to reproduce your content, they have infringed on your rights, whether its legal or not.
