Ep. 193: The Plagiarism of Content Online

Nobody likes a copycat. And when it comes to stealing the intellectual property of another online creator, it’s especially shitty. Our words are our livelihoods, and—believe it or not—the ideas we have take time, effort, and skill to craft and share. Having your thoughts stolen feels like a punch to the gut, and it’s never cool to do. So what do you do when your work has been plagiarized? Danny and Jill have seen it all, and won’t let someone else’s bad intentions or ignorance ruin their Best Life.   What goes through the mind of someone who plagiarizes?
