RE: What Is Stealing Of Content Versus Referencing Content? How Big A Problem Is This On Steemit?
What I think:
Copying is not stealing . For something to be stolen, I think it requires the original owner to not have the object anymore. If you copy something and then claim it's yours, that's lying. Don't do that.
I really like your idea that original content creators should post their stuff on Steemit or else do not complain it appears here.
These copyright and patent trolls would love to monetise the 26 letters of the alphabet if they could.
I agree on both these matters....
As long as the source is cited, it is not lying nor stealing.
Plus, online it actually refers people back to the source also benefiting them.
