Agreed - there are several users doing the copy/paste thing and then claiming 'fair use', but I don't think it falls under 'fair use' as it's clearly being used for profit/commercial intentions, not enrichment on a site such as FB (of course, FB gets enriched indirectly anyway) or Wikipedia type informational site. I expect that there will be people pursued/sued here for infringement/damages and they'll at least go after the full amount that is visible (even though the posted only gets half) and then some.

Yep, I think we need to start policing ourselves. People are just posting all kinds of stuff looking for up votes. It needs to be your own or site the source at least!
