Is it fare for sites that publish material to change article text? They can cut off advertising parts and URLs, this clearly reduces value of published article for the company. It's a fair game - they need material, companies need space for publishing, so why is it last word always after them? Some texts are changed just a bit at first, but then other web-sites take material and change it again. After all article have not much to do with it's original.
Like title "Web Certain launches first multilingual
SEO Forum" was first transformed to "English men launch first multilingual
SEO Forum" ended up with "First international forum about internet search and search engines is launched" and the text was completely rewritten and reduced to one small paragraph.
