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".

Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We have never had a situation where something that was not found online has been reported as plagiarized.

[Steemit.com] is an open decentralized platform that is censorship resistant. What that means is that the community has to police itself since once something is posted it is committed to the blockchain and unchangeable.

As part of the group @steemcleaners I spend a lot of time curating posts and identifying abuse such as plagiarism, copyright infringement, and ID theft. Offenders are flagged, their posts greyed out, and they lose any monetary rewards.

I'm going to evaluate the photos and information you have provided and discuss this with the team to see what actions we can take.

Thank you again for bringing this to our attention. ☙

Edit: Is it possible to get the name of the publication? Thanks.

You will never know that there will be a lot of copyright infringement here on this site for there are a lot of authors and wanna be authors. Thank you for your feedback and for the help. The name of the publication is Nation Builder.
