Can I introduce you to a concept called copyright?
Is it fine if an author publishes a short story publicly on the web for someone else to submit it to a contest as their own work?
- teddyh 4y agoPlease don’t use plagiarism as an argument for keeping copyright. They are not related. Plagiarism is already illegal or disallowed for obvious reasons, but copyright is a different matter.
- qu4z-2 4y agoI brought up plagiarism because it's what happened in this case. Maybe I shouldn't've mentioned copyright at all.
