RE: The Importance of Citation

Plagiarism really underminds the Steemit platform; there's always a stream of third world cunts that are so desperate for 50 cents, that they'll rip off anybody's work. I hope that mainstream media outlets and the like can actually sue some of them and leave them with such heavy legal bills that they are forced to sell their favourite cow to cover the costs.

Should we spot such plagiarism, what @steemcleaners do about it? Should we alert to them to it?

Please report it. We do our best to educate users who are new or don't understand how steemit works. The scammers we flag and use @cheetah's blacklist to warn the community that they are bad actors.

"stream of third world cunts" eh. welcome to racism bud, not everyone thinks your normative beliefs about intellectual property matters. your ego worship and bigotry are showing.

Let's watch them go and create their own platform then? Oh, it seems that they're lagging because they need something that they can easily plagiarise first.
