Everyday hubbers are complaining of hubs being copied and stolen,Should HP take some effective step?
For example, in our bank transactions, right click is not allowed or disabled. As a result, the page can not be copied. Can HP introduce such feature?
I'm not sure they could do this Chitrangada? IT experts would have to answer your question.
HP help by providing information to help the victims of plagiarism - which includes most if not all hubbers on HP!
It's shocking to know that stealing is rife across the internet - has been for years - and that there's still not much we can except file a DMCA and ask for the cheats to be banned.
Thanks chef-de-jour, for your response!
It is really very unfortunate when someone's hard work is stolen. I wish something could be done about this.
HP won't bother. Even Google is having a hard time pinpointing frauds from originals. Let's just hope a future Google Update will somehow solve this problem.
Thanks dailytop10, for answering the question!
I agree even Google must be having a tough time tackling the problem of Plagiarism. Lets hope for the best for all original writers.
Thanks!

Hi I've come across copy-proof text very often especially while taking online tests on freelance sites (skills tests). I was wondering if it was feasible and if search engines could still crawl these pages.. Because if it is possible then surely it would be a great investment here even if HP has to...

I can't believe what's just happened. One of my hubs was scraped and stolen. No big deal right? Happens all the time and its something that seasoned online authors get used to after a while because hunting thieves down is almost impossible. Well here's a new twist. Hub Pages found the stolen...

I've spent hours today tracking down a blogger on WordPress who has numerous blogs and stole one of my best hubs. This impacts my traffic and, thus, my earnings capacity. It happens so frequently (and to so many other hubbers) that it is not only time-consuming and frustrating, but makes me and...
