Daily Mail warning - suggestion for site

With the Daily Mail continuing to trawl the site for stories. Could Mumsnet have some sort of report button so that posters now the Daily Mail has picked up on a thread?

Bit shutting the stable door after the horse has bolted - but at least people would know...

Hi all,

Thanks for raising this.
The other posters are correct that MN is public forum and anything that you write can be read by anyone.

MUmsnet also get some kind of finders fee when mail contact posters for stories. They are not going to discourage Daily Mail activity.

Just to be clear, we don't get a 'finder's fee' or any other form of inducement - either from the Mail or from any other newspaper or outlet - for them referring to/screenshotting Mumsnet threads, or for contacting posters to ask whether they'd like to speak to journalists (we never give out users' details without their explicit permission, either).

yes, we do PM posters to ask them if they'd speak to a journalist who has contacted us but we make it clear that there is no obligation at all to do so.
