How to copy Socrates Private Blog Text

Socrates is designed to prevent copying of the blog text to the clipboard hence the need for this article.

More importantly, two more factors have made this subject more relevant recently:

• Fraudulent Blog Post Revisions
• Martin Armstrong's recent Empty Threat of Legal Action based on posting of copyrighted material

Quote of Martin Armstrong's empty threat March 17, 2020, 08:43:47 PM:

Tell you what: I will go to court with you formally and argue this case before a judge. ... While I'm at it I might suggest Armstrong go after this website for allowing copyrighted material be posted.  

In the United States we have the Fair use doctrine. This allows for the copying and publishing of copyrighted material without consent of the publisher to the extent that I am talking about here.

And Armstrong DID go after this website and failed. see: Martin Armstrong's Copyright Infringement Claim

In any case, please send me as many reports as possible, using a direct message via:

Either as text digest or as a link to your cloud drive location. Confidentially is assured. I sometimes receive requests from  people who ask for old blog posts, and I am happy to provide that service.
 

Obviously you don't want to publish an excessive number of paid reports. However you can copy selected pages in cases where you want to criticize the content, such as the following:

FACTS DO MATTER! Marty says DO NOT BUY THE LOW 4 days after the 2018 LOW. You need to publish / quote a blog page with URL (yes these private blog pages have URLs), subject, author and date, with the text verbatim as originally published as to be authentic and verifiable so that readers can compare notes.

Therefore, in order to be able to do this easily, you would ideally get the report text.

There is another reason why to get the text: You may want to store the reports on private storage such as your computer hard drive so you can SEARCH for words / sentences. Or if you copy all reports into a single file with the headers separating them, then searches can be done in a single file. Obviously, this is not practical with screen prints.

I would encourage any critics to keep posting selected Socrates reports with their fraudulent revisions because critics are covered by the law, the fair use doctrine.

Obviously, Martin Armstrong's copy prevention is not helpful in case you want to build a track record. You need to copy the text to archive it.

There are three ways to do it:

1. Save the entire page
2. View the source code of the page in your browser, copy the text part and remove the HTML tags and save the raw content as text file. I prefer this option because a text file or text snippet is easier to manage.
3. In Chrome highlight all the text then search google, then highlight the text again and paste to where you want to

There is of course the option to just copy the content as an image which is quicker but this has the disadvantages as shown above.
