Absurdity Vs. Copyright Infringement Complaint

I had an online collection of publicly available papers as one of my blog posting which I lifted from some website (I don't even remember the site's name). Since the collection was complete, I thought it would help me drastically in doctoral studies. To aggravate my pain, none of the papers were copyright protected and the collection only had links to other web sources only. Alas, some stupid yet selfish guy complained and the post was forcibly removed from my blog without my knowledge (as I was out on an internship).
I, certainly agree that blogspot personnel can't verify validity of all individual complaints. But, at the same time some efforts towards verifying the same should be actively pursued. Such inappropriate complaints piss me off and provoke me to run my own blog in my own internal webserver. Anyways the evil complainer got away with it just because I am a poor grad student who doesn't have neither time nor resource at his disposal.
