“Copyright” protects your wording, to the extent that it is an original creative work. It doesn’t protect the information you have just shared on a public website. Anyone can repeat the information you’ve posted here wherever they like and you have no remedy in law to stop them.
You obviously don’t have a clue what copyright is, or about copyright law, so yes, sticking copyright notices on your posts in bold type makes you look daft. As does pretending you’re a “we”, but that’s another issue entirely.
