I knew this stuff was happening on Steemit. It would be so easy to take material from a lesser known person, even photos and just screengrab them as scrub them of any details you eant to obscure and post them as your own. Then your entire STEEM-SCHEME is just to win followers and Upvotes and not to create content. Basically managing someone instead of being the creator and the manager all in one as, I assume, most of us are. I actually posted about this a while back, what if someone was posting plagiarized material, how would they be found out and I was told steemcleaner would find it. But as anyone with a B.S. would know all ypu have to do is read a journal and simply wrote put the same information in tour own style and you will not be seen to have any patterns similar with plagiarism. I suppose with art this is more obvious but still I think there is much plagiarism going on and leavin people to sinply game the system by focusing all energy on upvotes and SP. Perhaps this site is not as genuine as we all would like it to be. I also think all too often "popular" people on Steemit get huge upvotes by powerful people in return for vote reciprocity and their followers and their posts are very lacking in any really valuable material or content. Just a fan page of self-promoting at the benefit of those who have the SP and the followers. The minnows continue to suffer and upward mobility on this site has become nearly impossible. What a shame.
