@oneday1, thank you for not only humbly apologizing for your error in judgement, but also for writing this article. It illustrates not only what you did, but the aftermath, and the way you felt after everything played out. I think this is helpful for others to read. It will help some people avoid making the same mistake. It would be great if there could be a program or filter that would prevent plagerism, but I fear that even the best bots we have still need the human counterpart to screen the flagged content. There is no way that this screening could be done prior to posting. However, there are many people on the platform that keep an eye out, and now you are added to their ranks. That transformation alone is a success story.

Yesterday I withdrew my upvote from your plagerized article after reading the comments, and then researching the original article on Wired.

Today is a new day, and a fresh start for you!

Because of your turn-around and apology, I've upvoted and resteemed this article as one of my daily post promotions on the @mitneb Curation Trail. It will be featured in my daily curation report on 06 JAN 2018.

Cheers!
