  • Thank you @lowendtalk as well. I learned basic Linux and VPS hosting from this site and lowendbox. And the community is strong and has helped me in my hour of need. Many thanks everyone who contributed.

    The truth is all ways will fail, if someone on the Web is bent on copying something from you, they ultimately will! No matter how hard you try, if it's public there is a way to steal it...

    Was interested, but none of those display in Firefox.

    Really? If they are crawling a collection of sites, or just this one, then it will prevent that for now - though once they get wise they will workaround this.
    Additionally, if they are crawling, having something like Cloudflare and only accepting Browser user-agents might be a start, though a determined copier will still be able to access your website and steal content.

    I'd report it for unauthorized use of your content.

  • So serious stealing online contents

    Please add the following code to your site so we can all be happier:

    $html=str_replace(' rel="nofollow"','',$html);

    The main purpose is not to display them, but to bog down the browser trying to display them. Firefox did show an error for the long/wide images, which just means it has some other bug/limitation when it comes to handling images that are a million pixels in one dimension.

    Actually this works like a charm. I see Forbidden nginx message on all pages on their site except home page now. Thank you. You are a life saver friend.

    Next step, serve goatse when that ip is detected

    To add insult to injury the images often end up being hotlinked if you do recommended SEO by using full links instead of relative links. So not only do they steal your site they steal your bandwidth.

    One thing you can do to at least make it more trouble for them is disable hotlinking on your web server. That way a lot of the images/icons on their site just get the placeholder box. Most of these leeches are too lazy to try copy the images over and change the links.

  • PM me if you want to play games with this site. If they automatically scrape you it would be good to insert redirects to say pornhub or if you really want some custom text
