When a blog uses your post without credit

Fellow FTers:

I'm not sure that there is an answer to this question, but what can be done about flight blogs using information from this forum without credit? I posted several mileage runs yesterday, and within hours, they appeared on a popular deal blog.

I like being a member of this community, and I put in work to find deals and runs to do my part, as others do as well. It's not that I think the information shouldn't be shared, but the outright taking of the information for profit-motivated gains, without even so much as a respectful credit to the original source, is what gets me.

Anyway, I just wanted to say my peace.
