Using free hosts probably makes it harder to take action or prove that it's your copyright unless people decide to just cooperate.

The Thumblogger situation is potentially pretty bad for those who run into this. As far as I understand if someone scrapped your thumblogger blogs before thumblogger went down; now that they are down the scraper site would probably be considered the new source of the original content since the old source is gone and your replacement is going up after the scraper site has already had theirs published. And there is no way for you to use a redirect to show authority otherwise nor do you have any way to prove anything to Google. They have no idea that you are the content owner.
