my name is [private] and I'm the author hikinginfinland.com. I host
|
|
my website on your servers, and am very happy with your services (and
|
|
happily would pay for them, too).
|
|
|
|
Another website which is hosted also on your service is copying my
|
|
intellectual property nearly 1:1 and after talking with a lawyer friend
|
|
of mine he suggested I consult with you and bring up my case with you,
|
|
in order that his page might be taken down. The page in question is
|
|
called hikventures.com. The complete page was modeled after my own
|
|
design and the two owners are copying my ideas, article layout and
|
|
design often 1:1. Here's a few examples, also see the attached
|
|
side-by-side comparisons:
|
|
|
|
1. My "The Week In Review"
|
|
|
|
http://hikinginfinland.com/2014/03/the-week-in-review-lxiii.html
|
|
|
|
versus their "Weekly Newsletter":
|
|
|
|
http://hikeventures.com/hikeventures-newsletter-25/
|
|
|
|
2. My Destinations Page:
|
|
|
|
http://hikinginfinland.com/destinations/
|
|
|
|
versus their Destinations page:
|
|
|
|
http://hikeventures.com/destinations/
|
|
|
|
3. My Gear Reviews Section:
|
|
|
|
http://hikinginfinland.com/gear-reviews/
|
|
|
|
versus their Gear Reviews Section:
|
|
|
|
http://hikeventures.com/gear-reviews/
|
|
|
|
4. And an example of a complete copy of my post on Calazo maps:
|
|
|
|
http://hikinginfinland.com/2013/06/waterproof-hiking-maps.html
|
|
|
|
and their version:
|
|
|
|
http://hikeventures.com/waterproof-maps-for-sweden/
|
|
|
|
If you browse these examples you will quickly recognize the
|
|
similarities. Hiking in Finland will be this year five years old, and
|
|
will be running nearly two years on Octopress and Github in the spring.
|
|
For example the idea for my "The Week In Review" dates back to April
|
|
2010 (http://hikinginfinland.com/2010/04/the-week-in-review.html),
|
|
whereas they just copied idea & layout since last year. As this is my
|
|
business, and they also are aggressively trying to monetize their
|
|
content, I'd like them to stop. As talking with them has yielded no
|
|
result, this is the next step to take.
