You are so right. This is not Facebook! Even a lot of that sharing is actually illegal, but it has become hard to track down the original abuser of the work. I think Steemit should make a huge issue about this, so that people know what they are doing on here! With some people it is definitely ignorance, but with others it's outright dishonesty! Sadly, everyone is going to lose if there is a lawsuit, so they art hurting the whole community!

I've been concerned about that too here. I hope we see more done about it, especially in educating people. People taking content from elsewhere just isn't good for making quality posts. And yes, eventually, given that there are some large payouts here, Steemit could see lawsuits as the site grows more popular.
