Are puzzles like Nonograms and Sudoku copyrightable? If so, by what nations? I don't know, and I don't know if I care. I just can't support a site that seems so cavalier about whether the original authors are credited and paid.
So now I need to find another source of puzzles that aren't stolen. At this point, I can and should be willing to pay for original content, so it doesn't have to be free.

I discovered a website that has a huge library of Nonogram puzzles that you can play online and print on paper for offline play.
They take user submissions (and they pay submitters) - cool. However, when reading about that, the FAQ gave me the distinct impression the website owners don't investigate plagiarism claims, and in fact they tacitly encourage stealing from other sources as that's mostly how they have such a huge library of puzzles.
