@steemcleaners comments on, flags, or otherwise deters Plagiarized material...

photographs, images, and text, that are copy pasted as an original post..

in their Own words....

A comment and/or flag left by a member of @steemcleaners is not a call for a downvoting brigade. Most of the time, @steemcleaners doesn’t even flag; we try to guide the community in the right direction first and foremost.




  • Random YouTube videos are commonly presented as Posts with No commentary, or Original Content

  • @steemcleaners does not respond to these posts as Plagiarism..

  • Therefore they do not comment,Flag, or seek to deter the behavior in any way..

  • at least some of the Whales approve of this Youtube Posting behavior

  • any portion of the Whales represent a significant portion of the Community

  • this behavior allows for fast reputation leveling, and fast monetary gains

  • therefore the behavior continues to expand, as more YouTube video Posters ascend...

  • The Reasoning is that YouTube creators still receive the views and any youtube ad revenue from their YouTube Channel..

  • these YT channel creators Do Not receive the Monetary rewards for the aforementioned Posts..

`So, what does @steemcleaners look for and tag as “plagiarism”?

Word for word copying and pasting from any source.
Spun content taken from any source.
Claiming works of art that are not your original work.
Claiming an idea is your own. Did you really invent the telephone?
Failing to clearly identify content copied from sources`

What do You Think either Way...

I Sincerely would like to hear from the community..

Please Leave Your Opinion in the Comments..

i Want to know What YOU Think about this conundrum ?

YouTube allows you to embed videos, for your blog site, so I believe you have no copyright problem, as large news portals always use it.

I feel if it is not your material, it shouldn't be used, but if you must use a video, you can use the filters to show videos that fall under creative commons license. I upvote a lot of posts, but if its just a video I will usually move to the next post.
