Plagiarism is definitely a lazy route that many people are taking here. It's unfortunate because not only is plagiarism discouraging and insulting to the person who originally created the content, it is also is making Steemit a place of reposted content, stolen work, and spam. On top of that, some people are actually making money from this practice.
