Splogs and Feed test for feed spamming

Feed test for feed spamming.
Splogs such as voipniche steals posts via rss feeds. Now I have set my feeds to be short. All Bloggers who has splog problems could test this. In addition to short, one also could disable feeds for a while.

Splog problem is described somewhat at wikipedia and is a good starting point.

If the splog is at Blogger, one could follow this link to get information
Blogwerx sentinel allows you to monitor who steals your feeds.Profy.com has an article on sentinel.
Fight splog has a lot of information as well. From fight splog site;
From JenSense:

If you see a site violating the AdSense terms, you can now file an anonymous spam report that will get to the quality team for checking. To file a report, you simply go to the page that is showing AdSense ads and click on the "Ads by Google" (or "Ads by Goooooogle") link. In the form on the next page, include the term "spamreport" and put in a short reason about why you feel the site is violating the AdSense terms or policies. You can also enter your own email address, if you wish, then click submit.

ebiquity has a very good article on the subject, "Pings, Spings, Splogs and the Splogosphere: 2007 Updates" I say it is a must read. The article is rich with links, data (graphs).
