Someone Ripping Off Our Site/Logo & Defacing Our Brand. What Can We Do?
<p>Manterest.org not only rips off our name, they actually stole our v1 logo entirely. Technology aided this ripoff as these guys just threw up a WordPress theme with Pinterest-esque qualities and went to town posting affiliate links.<p>The worst part is that their navigation includes "Boobs" and "Sex" -- the majority of negative press we get argues that we are a bunch of pervs sitting around with our hands down our pants and we only post pictures of naked girls when in fact, nudity of any kind is against our TOS, we encourage our users to be respectful of women and we police our content nearly 24/7 between the founders and community volunteers.<p>These guys are just trying to profit from the recent press and seeing as I found them through a Google search, they probably are. We've spawned legitimate clones before (I won't name names) but to yank our logo and hope we don't notice? That's pretty bold.<p>PG, thoughts? What would you guys do?
