RE: The Sunday Purge #3: Is Flagging the Solution to Abuse?
plagiarism and theft of photos and content is Steemit's biggest scourge. It also occurred on TSU (a socials that paid) but there was an authority that if you were stealing several times you banned from the platform. Unfortunately it does not happen here ... and even the reports do not always work or have followed. This is the most annoying thing for me. See posts that earn a lot with photos downloaded from google ....
I get what you mean, but I think that the problem with the usage of photos can be brought if you're having a photography post, where the picture gets all the attention. In a writing post, I don't think is such a big problem since all the focus is on the writing.
Also, take into consideration that most of the people using Steem are not bloggers as a background thus they have no idea about things like this. They are probably just trying to fill the gaps in a large writing post like I just did. :D
