I am now suspicious of all well written, edited content that I encounter on SteemIt. If the article looks like it came from a magazine; it probably was cut and pasted from a magazine.
The biggest problem that SteemIt has is with people plagiarizing images.
Citing the source of an image does not give people the right to use the image.
There are places that will let you use images if you site the source. Make sure you read their ToS.
Finally, people should remember that the legal community takes Intellectual Property seriously. As people are paid on SteemIt, I suspect that we will soon see lawyers going after the financial assets of copyright violators on this platform.
thanks for the input! appreciate the info you can share and will take note on that! Hope my contents did share some sense to the people here and not here.
