Interesting news that is plagiarized is still plagiarized. There is the right way to do it and the wrong way.
Many people are making more money than the original authors are for doing nothing more than ctrl+c and ctrl+v.
It is our responsibility to shape the direction of Steemit.com because we all have a say to varying degrees as to how it should look going forward. I'm in the "respect the content owner" camp, but I know there are many who just want to see the world burn and don't give a wit about anyone else. They just want to make money or enjoy things without having to give back to the source.
We have the opportunity to change the system for the better, so that those creators can come to Steemit and make money for their work directly without having to be a slave or give their work away for free to big corporations in the hopes they get exposure and get paid the "normal" way.
We need to support our fellow humans in this and not rip them off and be kicking them too!
News piece that is edited in one's own way is completely different from a plagiarized ones and Steemit sometimes even detects a news piece that is completely edited as plagiarized just for the sake of some quoted lines huh how can this be ok? then there wouldn't be any news sites even Google will not do that when it comes to news reports ....
That's right. And nobody is complaining about non-plagiarized news or articles.
Bots are not perfect, but we need something to help sift through the tons of plagiarized content here.
Google is a search engine, and Steemit is not.
I wonder how people will feel when their Steemit post gets copy and pasted by someone else and the user copying their work makes 5k and they made 5 cents. That user would scream bloody murder and try to get the Steemit " authorities" to do something about it. But that same user would have no problem at all taking the content of someone outside of Steemit in order to make a profit for themselves.
Greed, theft, a lack of ethics and some odd mental block that keeps them from seeing that what they are doing is all of these things. They blame the victim (the content creator) for putting the content on the web in the first place where it apparently becomes free to pilfer and suggest that the content creator should have to track down those that are using their work without permission rather than the abuser ask the content creator for permission in the first place.
The more I think about this issue the more contempt I have.
