No problem, unless your intent is to profit. WAIT- Is not to profit, why you are here? The solution is simple.
Add a paragraph or two commentary, describing what the video is about, but more than just a description, an opinion. Therefore you have made the case that you will profit from your commentary and the video is a reference to that. Making all profits yours. To be safe you should have a minimum of 50 words.
While I have mentioned this to , the group responsible for tracking down and managing abuse, verbal and legal, the opinion still seems varied. It was mentioned, "those posts wont make any money anyway," but I'm not sure that is necessarily true. If I started posting you-tubes biggest hits, my guess is that I could make a few bucks with zero effort.
I understand the argument, "we don't censor," let the community decide. Yet Steemit is concerned with plagiarism with the copy/paste; so much so that it created and funded the to bring awareness to new users that plagiarism is frowned upon and may result in further action.
As I go through the posts on the NEW page, reading and looking for the place to apply my votes, I feel like I have entered twitter. Suddenly there are tons of these posts with a video and maybe a line of text. I know it is a direct result of rapid growth, of new users. I am concerned, for I suspect soon the rapid growth to be exponential. It could be very quickly thousands, and tens of thousands. Whereas I believe if we can bring the same type of awareness to these users, it serves to educate / advise / protect the user while increasing quality and shows that Steemit does not support this behavior.
I would like to suggest that we all think about this further. I believe this can easily be turned around before the next growth spurs.
As you think about it, be reminded, its about paying/getting paid for something belonging to another just like plagiarism.
We need your opinion.
