https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cooks_Source_infringement_controversy https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cooks_Source_infringement_cont... > But honestly Monica, the web is considered 'public domain' and you should be happy we just didn't 'lift' your whole article and put someone else's name on it! It happens a lot, clearly more than you are aware of, especially on college campuses, and the workplace. If you took offence and are unhappy, I am sorry, but you as a professional should know that the article we used written by you was in very bad need of editing, and is much better now than was originally. Now it will work well for your portfolio. For that reason, I have a bit of a difficult time with your requests for monetary gain, albeit for such a fine (and very wealthy!) institution. We put some time into rewrites, you should compensate me! I never charge young writers for advice or rewriting poorly written pieces, and have many who write for me... ALWAYS for free![22][23] Yep, remember that? Cooks Source (lack of apostrophe in the original) copied an article about cooking, which lead to the discovery of massive copyright infringement on the part of Judith Griggs, the editor of that now-defunct publication. So, two things: One, it looks like Judith Griggs was right. This kind of thing does happen a lot in the academic world. Two, this kind of thing probably happens a lot in that particular attempt at a journal or book or academic blog or whatever that pathetic excrescence is officially called. Get the copies now before they use copyright claims to make it impossible for people to notice how often they violated copyright.
