RE: The Steemit song
This is an idiotic stance for a number of reasons. It means i have to specify I didn't write anything I post. For example if I share an article from a news site I now need to say "I didn't write this"
If Im not allowed to share anything online I didn't personally write or create the internet wouldn't work as you would need to include the disclaimer each time. You are honestly telling me that sharing something is stealing it?
It seems you don't understand the concept behind Steemit. We get paid for our posts. If you're making more money on a re-post of someone else's content without giving proper credit or even asking for their permission then you are blatantly ripping off someone else's content. It's especially wrong when you do these kinds of things on a platform that pays you to be creative, and does not pay you to benefit off of another person's work.
You clearly haven't grasped what you have done wrong and after investigating further it seems you've been re-posting numerous youtube videos that do not belong to you on your youtube account. I think you should worry less about our flags and start working towards creating some original content that people can really enjoy. On the internet we call this type of behavior *"spamming". Please consider the amount of work people put in to their content; then you will be able to understand why we like to pay the original author's here on Steemit.
