Facebook's freebooting is pretty terrible. But this can destroy entire websites. The title is misleading. Google isn't just not punishing thieves, it's heavily punishing the originals. They dropped from 20th result, to 100+, because someone stole their content.

Yikes! That is much worse, at least based on your note. Do you think this is an area where the EFF could litigate on behalf of the original creators in a fraud context? Just curious, and also grateful to not be dealing with such a horrible prospect.
