Could this get the same kind of backlash as Recipeasly.com earlier this year? [1, 2]

Should it?

I realise Recipeasly was republishing stripped recipe content (search-indexably). Is that a sufficient difference?

my understanding is that recipeasly was "stealing" page views from the blogs which led to ad revenue decline. this extension modifies the page afaik so shouldn't be the same issue.
