I became aware that yahoo India has apparently lifted stuff from Malayalam bloggers to lauch its portal in the same language via Om Malik.
There is a blog post detailing the incident and Yahoo’s dealing with the issue.
While we were researching Yahoo’s content providers, we came across a provider, Webdunia (mentioned before). From our investigation, we found that they are the ones who collect information/features/articles to be posted on Yahoo India.
With the knowledge that we had made a formal complaint to Yahoo/Yahoo India, Webdunia came forward with vague options for remuneration as well as an apology from Webdunia and not from Yahoo India.
Here is an update on the issue.

Why people are making so much nice about small recipe. It is not a copyrighted material but foolish and greedy bloggers are thinking that they may make huge sum out of Yahoo. This is not a tenable case in any court of law.
