The World Copyright Office then?

Oh wait, three seconds of googling suggests my posts are most likely covered when I post via my home instance in Australia.

"You don't need to register for copyright in Australia. The moment an idea or creative concept is documented on paper or electronically it is automatically protected by copyright in Australia. Copyright protection is free and automatic under the Copyright Act 1968."

The same applies here in NZ (although my instance is currently residing in AU)
