Rss and copyrights

Since the rss technology the duplication of data is at the peak. Many websites are showing the same data over and over. If not atleast one post excerpt one can see on the different places.

Is there any check for this?

Copyright is the only solution for this evil but one cannot claim copyrights of his or her hundreds or thousands of articles or posting. There should be a technology or measures to stop this.

Google has introduced the penalty corner for those who duplicate the data but the issue is how it knows that who is the original author. If some one have no copyrights on material and being syndicated by others.  This issue may take time to resolve.

I think the content theft can be stopped from being growing if all the search engines and directories act together. There must be a data or content submission form to the  search engines and the person who submit it first will be the original author. If the same data is found on other sites must be penalise. But in real world it is very difficult to be deployed.

Another possible issue can be through crawling, the content found first on crawling becomes its genuine author but there is also a drawback. The sites which are not listed on serach engines or are being crawled less frequently may suffer.

The only option of DMCA left behind. But every body cannot follow the lengthy and expensive process of DMCA.
