How to stop plagiarism on steem?

thatrader (25)in #steemit • 7 years ago (edited)

I have recently come across a dozen of accounts who simply copy paste news articles which is very annoying. Since, I believe you get paid for your writing and readers expect some sort of creativity in your writings.
In this way, they not only abuse the site but also insult the readers.
I looked for the report link, but couldn't find any. Please do let me know if you know how to report someone for their plagiarism content.
if there aren't any reporting feature on this site, how can we stop these accounts?

I got followers copy whole articles from me and even use the same images. While I agree that's wrong. I also had some plagiarism nazi police flag my posts because

I didn't include references for every parragraph. I think we need balance. We are not writing journal articles here but on the other hand copy and paste whole articles is definitely wrong.

I think that cheetah both already does this and trying to enforce more anti plagiarism is a waste of time and can become in a censorship tool if you do not conform to what people believe is right or wrong

Copying whole content is a serious and funny both at the same time.
Totally agree over what you have said of reporting plagiarism content is a waste of time.
But still, I would give it a try.
