RE: steemcleaners is a fake, hypocritical "cleaner" service

in #steemit7 years ago

I'm not the original source nor do I claim to be. steemcleaners on the other hand, posts random websites as sources and wants steem users to list random Tumblr blogs as sources. it's stupid and isn't helping anyone.

Sort:  

your posts add no value and dont google rank an original post would

There's no reason for me to be singled out while others pretend to cite Tumblr and random internet blogs as sources. They aren't. Other people have spam accounts and source Tumblr and are left alone. it's a retarded loophole. I could just create a Tumblr, cite it as the source, and be left alone. instead, I'll use the real money I invested in steem, because I am not just a spam account, and fight back against this nonsense.

By not citing a source or acknowledging that you are not the person who originally took the photographs you are inferring they are your work.

Tracking down the original owner of a photo is too time consuming for both the contributor and @steemcleaners. It's enough that a link is posted to where the content was found.

This isn't about copyright, it's about making it clear that the content was created by someone else.

yes but u dont source the original source [which is a rule if its not your content that you ignore] plus copypasting posts that already exist messes up google search and will degrade steemit overall.
