RE: "Nearly Half of All DAO Funds Withdrawn After Ethereum Hard Fork" by Cryptoverse
posting youtube videos is no content theft, at least not if OP is not re uploading it to his channel. downvoting this post is abuse of the downvote function in my opinion.
I created this content and posted it on Steemit 1 hour before this guy ripped it off. See my original post here: https://steemit.com/thedao/@marketingmonk/nearly-half-of-all-dao-funds-withdrawn-after-ethereum-hard-fork-the-cryptoverse-45
your content belongs to youtube, since you accepted their terms when you uploaded to their platform. you, as the creator, earn ad money on the video (if you want), and you're free to allow embedding or not.
nothing "ripped" here, except you being unlucky with your post earlier.
are you 100% sure about that!
If this happens again, the best way to react is to contact the blogger and kindly request a share of the payment, if you are very nice with your request you will most likely get paid. Attacking with downvotes is not the way to operate on a blockchain, decentralized is all about being nice to get good results, that's the big different between steemit and other social platform, positive actions are rewarded.
If it happens again? I'd appreciate if you didn't do it again, but yes if someone else does it I will consider it.
I agree with the concept you are putting forward however as soon as I saw what you'd done, you already revealed yourself to be dishonest, so how could I expect a positive response to a request for a share of the payout?
If you liked my content, why didn't you upvote it yourself? to signal to the network that you believe my content should be seen by more people.
That's how the system works.
Here's the list of upvoters on my original post at time of writing:
I don't see you on it mate.
So you saw my content as valuable enough to re-post, but not to upvote yourself?
Strange that.
Therefore I can only conclude that it was your explicit intention to leech off my hard work.
And you say "it's all about being nice to get good results".
If that's true how come you re-posted my content (not nice) and yet still got good results?
Your argument fails a simple test of logic.
I found your video on youtube, not steemit
Here is post of someone who earned $220 from sharing one of my videos, and you can see in the comments how I reacted to it... https://steemit.com/money/@autosmile13/so-i-guess-i-should-make-this-video-about-the-steemit-com-hack
Downvoting for non-abuse isn't always abuse either. It won't make you any friends though!
