Wow, My First Plagiarized Post! UDPATE: post deleted and user apologized
UPDATE: the plagiarized post was deleted and replaced with "sorry."
Today someone copy and pasted my entire post from two days ago. Does this happen often on Steemit? Here is the link to my post and the copied one:
Mine: https://steemit.com/sustainability/@cstrimel/sustainable-lifestyle-engineering-an-introduction
The Creepy Plagiarist: https://steemit.com/homesteading/@fallinyou/sustaining-similar-to-homesteading
I filled out the Abuse Report form at https://steemcleaners.org/abuse-report/
but if anyone has any other advice, please let me know.
@cstrimel "imitation is the sincerest form of flattery" haha
That is crazy! I'm sorry this happened to you. I hope they get it fixed for you quickly.
Yeah, I am new at this, so I was kind of shocked, but a search of #plagiarism shows it is an ongoing problem. I wonder how often it happens in the non-blochain blogosphere?
Update: the person deleted the post and replaced it with "sorry." I guess that's something.
