@dalias@hachyderm.io @misomunje@mastodon.social @laurenshof@indieweb.social @baldur@toot.cafe We learned this in primary school actually. You can’t just look up something in an encyclopedia and copy the text word for word in your book report/essay/whatever. In highschool we learned you can but only if you give proper credit (aka citations)… now we have built something that plagiarizes from the internet in bulk without giving credit… I do not see how this is going to work long term. It’s like using images you found on google search as stock images on your website. Sure, if not very many people look at your site you can mostly fly under the radar… but all it takes is just one person at the wrong time and now you’re getting cease and desist.
