I report sites that are blatantly copying my content without permission. usually they are blogspot or wordpress hosted blogs - so getting them out of the way is relatively easy.
If only they would ask permission etc, then I might not mind. But stealing content is a big no no.
From my experiences Google havent been much help in this sort of thing, ive tried to have offensive and slanderous comments about me removed from a website only for google to deny it saying something along the lines of there was no content they could find to be malicious despite the site posting false information and using foul language about me.
And Ive also emailed google only to get no reply.
I haven't but I would if they were doing things like using my content even other people's content. It doesn't sit right with me that people put the hard work into their content and someone else uses it without permission just because they are lazy. It's not fair to anyone.
