Ubuntu Geek blog is (in)famous for stealing articles from others sources without giving credit to the original creators of the contents. They are a bunch of lazy asses. They also watermark images took from an OPEN SOURCE operating system!!!
I hate that blog. They also disabled right click not long time ago.
