RE: Hi steemit, my name is April Agnes, the original author of "Edelweiss". I found my story in here that I made 5 years ago. My first impression of Steemit is "PLAGIARISM".
Hi there and welcome. Firstly, sorry to hear about your experience.
I too, found my own work plagiarised here on Steemit, but when I alerted the community, they gave the perpetrator a piece of their mind, with flags., so justice can be found, but it takes vigilance.
I agree that plagiarism is currently rampant on Steemit, but luckily there are a number of people fighting back, and would-be plagiarists are being kept on their toes. Steemcleaners caught someone recently who had respun an article quite meticulously and gotten it "trending", so the message is getting across; plagiarism is not welcome here.
Hello. Actually I'm feeling better now. Now that I know that this site isnt tolerating any kind of abuse esp copyrighting.
I'm still working and adapting to this new platform. I don't where I should start. What can be earn on this site and many more. I will do further research. I might join in your campaign just give me a couple of days learning new things about steemit. Thanks :)
