Tynt Eyes Copy/Paste

Tynt, a San Francisco-based analytics company, is working with a raft of publishers, including Time Inc. and Conde Nast titles, to help them determine what topics people are most engaged with based on their copying habits. Tynt returns the analytics to publishers that can make money from people copying their content.

Tynt's technology recognizes when some one starts highlighting information on a web page. Tynt also always publishers to insert a link on text that is copied from their site. They also might have an advertisement pop up when text is copied.
