Wow, déjà!

Good to know I'm popular enough to get blatantly copied in an attempt for ad
revenue

Los Angeles USA is about all I can find out.

WOW! That is a blatant ripoff, but I think you already said something
like that Dave.

Getting revenue on your input.

What (if anything) to do about it?

Unfortunately the site is set up so it appears to be owned by
you and then cleverly links to your content so it's going to
be almost impossible to stop it.

You should do a blog about it and discuss what you think of
such weasels as well as a short preface to all you videos:
"Unfortunately some opportunists have tried to hijack my content
for advertising purposes, so I am categorically denying all
involvement with any site other than my own site www.xxx.yyy.zzz and
YouTube where the videos are
hosted"

It's not as bad as the site that blatantly plagiarises an
article about making PCB's including photo's and diagrams then
passes it off as their own content.

If someone on the east coast woke at 6:00 am and called him that would
be 3 am his time, think he would want to talk about it? Oh someone else
might
wake up at 6:30 and want to talk. If some call at 7am EST. the phone might
be
off the hook.

Area code 541 is in Oregon, not California.
Do you think he didn't want to be found?

Will be interesting to see if he copies me again, or some other video blog!

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, if you ain't making any money
out of your
efforts then maybe this guy values your work higher than you do, eh ????
