        This is on par with the copypastas that floated around FB for a while isn’t it?

          Especially given that this particular comment is 90% quotes from some other author.

        No need to assume, you can see this on all of their comment history. They are claiming ownership of their words, or in the context, ownership of how they’ve arranged others words

            I want to see the first DMCA takedown for a comment “pirating” another user’s comment.
