RE: Smart Media Tokens by STEEM - My Explanation and Thoughts

in #steemit7 years ago

Curious as to why you didn't attribute the video? The creator is aware of your use of it, so that's good, but why no plug? Some folks might miss the comments, and not know @dougkarr made the video.

Also, are you gonna compensate @dougkarr for his contribution to your post?

Technically, as I'm sure you are aware, posting his video without attribution is plagiarism. An author of your stature neither needs to plagiarize, nor is unaware of the need to attribute.

I am really confused about this. I am hoping it's merely an oversight. What you do about it, editing your post, compensating @dougkarr, nothing at all, or anything in between, will clarify my understanding.

Thanks!

The post is not about the video but about my sum-up of the whitepaper thats too long and complex for people to read.

I thought his top comment is enough but sure why not add him to the post, i have no problems with that!
