five things one can do to discourage splogging and defend their RSS feeds, but obviously there's no way to prevent them altogether.

I know EXACTLY what you're saying!!! I'm working hand-in-hand with the PPA right now with a person that stole over 1,000 pieces of my work is pretty much shining us on.
The PPA will begin to show this infidel how strong they are that they shouldn't have done that to begin with.
I have been having problems with scrapers stealing content lately as well. Many of them stopped after I reported the instances to Google. I guess they find it is not worth it if their bogus pagerank is compromised.

While I agree that stealing your article whole hog would be a DMCA violation, quoting a small percentage of the text (like the opening article) with clear attribution is absolutely not a DMCA violation, and is classified as fair use.

That is an interpretation of the fair use clause. As I have said, I don't really have an issue with that except for those sites that are just aggregators and serve no purpose than to try to bump their own ratings by having tons of content when they have no original content themselves. It is acceptable because it drives traffic back. The ones I will not tolerate are ones who take the entire article and put it on their own sites.
