You have to accept that most people do not care about copyright (even TV) and that Steemit needs to attract millions of people if you want your currency to take on value and also be able to earn a lot more Money to tallentuous creators.
Some amateur creators will never attract crowds.
No I don't have to accept that. I sue people over that. This is why youtube takes down videos. This is not good for Steemit. What is good, is for Steemit to attract quality artist and content creators, then it will be know as a place of quality and no one will be able to rival it. If it's just as lame as Twitter or FB what good is that?
U want a Steemit like Vimeo/Deviantart, not very popular.
Money come with user. If u dont want lot of User, artist never get ton of money.
U want ultra strict Steemit without money.. Great vision
How do you recognize if a post is using someone else's photos or content? I mainly use my own pictures and, (what some might call, "art.") When I make videos I use a free share site for music, and list it either in the video or in the description. Some photos can't be traced back to any original artist, like pictures on gify, (where many pictures are taken from news stories and movies and made into funny gifs. If it's a big issue, maybe some user guidelines might be helpful?
I certainly don't want to profit off of anyone's work. I barely profit off my own stuff, which isn't a big deal because I love to share my greatest interests, and having others read it or watch a video is pretty cool to me. Anyway. This is a good post nspart.
All photos have a copyright. So you either ask permission or your find Stock Photos. Some are free some you have to pay to use.
But you can't just take a credit. When you embed a youtube video that's different because they get more view and paid for them in some cases.
But copying and pasting peoples content is different.
I personally haven't seen that done. Well, maybe once, I saw one poster jump on another poster for content, but I didn't investigate it.
I do get the issues involved. A lot of struggling artists out there.
