00:40 schestowitz__[TR]; > I know that you said you want to be impersonal when posting news, but promoting plagiarism is not ok. I am sick and tired of seeing my original articles plagiarised.

00:40 schestowitz__[TR]; >

00:40 schestowitz__[TR]; > The latest example is, of course, the Ubuntu Unity article (totally original - no press release or anything), which was minimized in just two paragraphs (stolen word by word from my website and remixed) by itsubuntu.com (https://news.tuxmachines.org/n/2022/09/01/Unity_Desktop_Makes_a_Comeback_With_the_Upcoming_Ubuntu_22_10.shtml)

00:40 schestowitz__[TR]; > So please, I'm asking you not to promote this individual anymore.

00:40 schestowitz__[TR]; > Thank you!

00:40 schestowitz__[TR]; [Copying Rianne in]

00:40 schestowitz__[TR]; Yes, I saw that Rianne had added it when I woke up.

00:40 schestowitz__[TR]; I've put itsubuntu.com in my "shitlist" already (but rianne's RSS reader still has it) and it's one of several scam sites. Another was LinuxStoney and his fake "It's FOSS". The opennet.ru people told me that what they did was, they ran the opennet text through automated translators and then pass those off as "new" articles in English.

00:40 schestowitz__[TR]; Rianne, please don't link to itsubuntu.com, that site needs to die.
