RE: When people plagiarize your ideas - Ramblings on Life #15

in #writing7 years ago

I cannot debate with what you said... You are obviously correct...
no one is seeing the caveat I placed it seems... perhaps I need to increase the font, lolz...

On a serious note, yes I agree plagiarism can have huge negative consequences... what I wanted to say was that when money is not involved in such a big way, or a lot doesn't depend on it... there may be a way of dealing with it positively....

Sort:  

I think what you may have been leaning more towards in the article was creative influence and not outright plagiarism. There are a lot of ideas that are influenced by other ideas, but I think everyone agrees that straight up plagiarism is always a negative because someone is always getting screwed, even if money isn't involved, because when it all comes down to it, time is money.

Yeah, agreed.
