*Because* they're using your material to insult you, it's probably
perfectly legal. Your posts have been excerpted and paraphrased for
the purpose of criticism. This is a well-established fair use
exception in U.S. copyright law and likely elsewhere, too.
You keep ignoring this fact. You prefer to pretend that you've
obviously been wronged by scofflaws. But it just ain't so.
