it isn't just one article, it seems they have been copying lots of stuff for the last two months or so. Just take the given URL, shorten it to its top level and read some of the titles, they'll sound familiar.

Looks like the user cnblogs on that website has been a busy bee. Appears to be the top poster on that site.

|
|
|

There is also a user cnblogs[^] on CodeProject, wonder if they are related?
Chris, what does the email address / ipadress etc, suggest?
|
|
|
|
|
There are many, many Codeproject articles there.

To add insult to injury - they serve the source files from Code Project so CP servers are still taking a hit here.

What the heck are you doing here? Aren't you supposed to be downing Slammers on a beach somewhere?

OTOH it probably is the only way to keep up with all the revisions those web scraping applications seem to need.
yet another reason for CP to install a web service...

I wonder if that is why there was a step change in the online user count earlier this year? Would need Chris to quantify that with the GA stats, but it seems to be about 10-15K higher on average.

Are you suggesting Chris is now running sock puppet web sites on different continents, and secretly redirecting all traffic to CP?

Reading between the lines I may have seen something that wasn't really there at all...

No - that was due to many, many late nights speeding up hardware and software.

Hey Chris,
Since the rogue site is linking to files on CP's server, wouldn't it be easy to detect the referring URL/domain and redirect them to a blank zip file or perhaps something more interesting like a 4800 x 4800 resolution lossless JPEG of Justin Bieber.

That would only take care of attachments, and not the body of the article. Someone should find out where this loser plagiarizer lives and egg his house. Any takers?

Because that will ensure he will never ever do this type of thing again! Seriously? Egg his house?
Surely it would be better to wait till he comes out of his house, and then give him a wedgie?

One of the reasons we ask for members to be logged in is specifically for things like this. They can link to downloads, but unless you're a member you won't get access.

You know I can be a bad man, Nish, but even I have my limits. There are things even I won't stoop too.
