It Is Time to Stop Linking to the Same Bloody Article.

In ten days, the same MeFite has posted four links to the same article, mostly without much comment:

It Is Time To Stop Pretending To Endorse The Copyright Monopoly. #1

It Is Time To Stop Pretending To Endorse The Copyright Monopoly. #2

It Is Time To Stop Pretending To Endorse The Copyright Monopoly. #3

It Is Time To Stop Pretending To Endorse The Copyright Monopoly. #4

Another MeFite has also done it twice in one hour by his own proud admission :

It Is Time To Stop Pretending To Endorse The Copyright Monopoly. #5

It Is Time To Stop Pretending To Endorse The Copyright Monopoly. #6

Guys, if you think this article is so great, please make a decent FPP out of it, or at least do explain why it is so great. Otherwise this becomes uncomfortably close to political spam.

This is the sort of thing that is super easy to work out via the contact form, really. We can delete some comments, discourage the people who are serial linking, and keep an eye out for future instances if you let us know directly. Bringing it up here means they'll all stay since they're now linked, and probably more thread angst than is strictly necessary.

OP has reconsidered the post and asked to close the thread. Thanks, Skeptic!
