PLAGIARISM ON STEEMIT!! - STOP IT - WE WILL FLAG AND REPORT YOU!
Ok I don't usually get mad, but I am mad today!
I have made a video about PLAGIARISM and stealing other people's content BUT same people who commented saying they agree are DOING IT!!!
I am a FOOD Blogger! I work my ass off to create a recipe, to write it, to film it , to edit it and to take loads of pictures!! THIS TAKES LONG TIME! All the food bloggers who work hard, do the same.
Now for OTHERS to then go and STEAL YOUR WORK and pretend its YOURS really makes me mad. ASK any real food blogger how long on average it TAKES to write a RECIPE and take ORIGINAL PICTURES!
I will be calling you out if you do this! I will show you how I caught @totalgyan stealing work. Worst part about this is that he LIED! So it made me question and THEN I spoke to @demotruk about it! There is is a website you can use to search for revere images and where they come from. So any stolen work will always appear in google.
Check the conversation here:
If you are PLANNING on stealing work - YOU WILL BE FOUND - I WILL REPORT YOU and you will be taken off the platform.
RECIPE HE POSTED AS HIS
RECIPE ON THE WEBSITE :
Taken from here: https://www.philadelphia.co.uk/Recipes/White-Chocolate-Raspberry-Cheesecake?r=51
I am not a bitch, I am helping the platform and protecting it from LAZY PEOPLE who cant DO WORK and want easy money. His post is NOW hidden and he will not get paid and will lose his reputation.
Looks like ALL HIS FOOD posts are STOLEN!
If you SPOT PLAGIARISM and see someone is copying ANY ARTICLES report them with PROOF to @steemcleaners - YOU WILL GET PAID FOR IT!!
you will get MONEY for reporting scammers.
i seen that guy around he post on everything comments
Fantastic job Alla! Way to go! I'm glad you did this and brought the account to notice. I've warned the user in the past and it fell on deaf ears! This was a good way to highlight it to the entire platform that this is unacceptable activity. Thank you for doing this! It was just disgraceful and distasteful to do this and not even own up to it!
Thank you! Yeah no problem. I appreciate your comment.
Alla, let me tell you this right now. You are one of the best content creators on this site and are certainly no where near being a b****! I commend you for standing up to this crap as it's evident you put hours of effort into your work. I honestly felt a little sick as I read through the post, it's plain disgusting and taints the reputation of this awesome platform.
Excellent job! Everyone, take note and let's stick together on this one! :)
thank you Ezzy!! means a lot to me and such kind words!! :)) we will! :)
Just followed Andy upvoted I'll make sure to report all plagiarism I see
So even a chocolate raspberry cheesecake recipe isn't safe?!
looks away to the distance and shakes his head...furrowing his brow, he rubs his eyes slowly fighting back the temptation to let a single tear escape manfully down his chiselled cheek bone...
Is nothing...sacred?
I vote for STEEMIT assassination squads. Fully armed, sanctioned by a whale to seek and destroy.
It's the only way to get rid of the scourge of plagarism.
On a more serious note, ofcourse plagiarism (once verified) sucks. It's theft.
Plagiarism is very dangerous. In Russia, because of him, very good authors have stopped writing books. Their materials simply stole other sites, and the authors did not receive rewards.
Good work @allasyummyfood. Plagiarism is rampant in Photography section as well and people are not quoting any sources as well!
BTW I just noticed he had mentioned his camera as Nikon D4300. There is no such model in the market so it's a FAKE camera as well :)
OMG!!! hahhahahaha that is brilliant!! WELL SPOTTED!!
LOL
He's ambitious lol
Agree
He's from the future!
LOL!!
This commentary is interesting to read. :)
Good for you. In the early days of the platform it was much easier to police this sort of thing.
It's good to see that people are still confronting those that plagiarise.
Thank you for opening our eyes to this. I will surely be on the lookout. thanks @allasyummyfood
Good job, plagiarism is plain wrong and this has to have some sort of consequence.
What do you think about reposting an old post? It could be that you think your post is under value, already past the 7 days payout and you decided to re post it.
Well, if it is your own post and you own the rights to it I don't see any reason why you can't repost it (unless it is against Steemit TOS), having duplicate content (even if your own) can hurt you in search results though. Maybe Steemit needs a bump feature that would let the same post be republished to the top for a fee or something.
In academia, that would still be self-plagiarism, so I personally wouldn't do that unless there is value added to it - maybe it is a different take on the same issue, some improvement to the initial idea presented, or something like that. Even then I wouldn't just put up the original post in quotes with an extra comment below. I would re-write and reformulate it.
And personally, I don't think considering something undervalued is a good argument for posting it again - it is a community decision, and how much you earn is what the community thinks you deserve to earn from it.
Oh, I agree with you on those points. I wouldn't repost the same thing either. I just meant I don't think there's anything legally that would stop him from publishing his own work again unless it is against Steemit ToS. If the user owns the rights then they are free to decide when/how to publish their IP.
But yeah, if you think the topic was undervalued or your article just didn't get the traction you thought, I would try to rewrite it from a different angle. Sometimes the internet is just odd though, things that you think are small go viral and things you think are going to be big never go anywhere. Such is life :).
Oh yeah. Life is unpredictable. Two days ago I was busy reading for my research, yesterday reading about bitcoins, today - I am a registered user on steemit. Gosh! =)
Indeed, only just discovered Steemit yesterday and after some googling figured that I would give it a shot and maybe get some beer money!
Yeah maybe that could work, the biggest problem that I've is that I can't go back and edit the post after 7 days.
Couldn't you resteem it?
No you can't resteem your own post.
