Bull****. Where you come from, and most others, coying somebody else's work

I'm assuming you at least got though middle school where the subject was
covered, but here's a refresher...
Giving CREDIT to the original author is called a reference.
Copying and pasting word for word without giving credit to the author is
plagiarism.

Whether you give credit or not, it's copyright violation unless you have
the permission of the copyright holder or it falls under one of the
"fair use" exceptions.

There is for some reason a persistent notion that using someone else's
work is lawful as long as you give credit. It is not.

Constantly disputing anything and everything for a response that isn't
related to the subject at hand is called.... "Trolling"

Thanks for finally admitting it.

You don't want to discuss anything at hand, you just want attention and
defences.

Even if that were true, at least I use my own material.
