A funny way of explaining the effects of plagiarism /A why not!

ALOHA

Plagiarism.

Works just like in the picture below except that in reality to those who write the picture never goes away. In other words the fact of your theft is right there in your post.

This is what Faq says on steemit about plagiarism

"Is it okay to use random pictures from the internet?"

"If you are using an image that is not your own, make sure you are allowed to use the image, and cite the source of the image. Using random pictures from the internet without giving credit is discouraged. You may, however, use photos from “free image” websites such as Pexels.com or Pixabay.com. All photos on Pexels and Pixabay are free for personal and commercial use."

Really if people care about such things they should be posting in comments.

What exactly they didn’t like about what was in the post.

If no response is forthcoming flag the post.

First however one should appeal to people's sense of right and wrong

and give them a chance to correct the problem.

It is not ignorance to not know.

It becomes ignorance when one refuses to know.

Which is an entirely different attitude and needs to be dealt with.


Wikipedia

There are a lot of people who just don’t know, but need to be informed and we are supposed to do that with love.

Personally I want to see photos sourced because I want to know I am not supporting ignorance or worse!

I am more likely to make a comment on a person post say

“You need to source your photo’s”

then I am to just flag it.

If I see that they will not source photos I flag and then unfollow so I don’t have to see it anymore.

With lots of love!!!
