First thing to do when you wanna quote something: you google the sentence and you try to find out whether everyone agrees on the source... :whistle:
It was Voltaire, right? :lol:
Gonna blame Google. :p

Was it something he cared about? Something he'd put real time into working on?
Nah, I was trying to annoy him, make him learn his lesson. :p

I had my fair of share doing that, before I realized everyone is doing it to the point I stopped doing it because it's not right.

The more I get serious about copyright, the more I get pissed off seeing people doing it. :(

I fought for many years for this kind of thing. Until I understood that kids don't get it until they actually get someone else to steal their writings.
Tried it against this kid few days ago using that method. :P
Doesn't flinch him, not...ever...one...bit.

The method was a failure. :p

Instead of saying:
Quote
If you can't sleep, then get up and do something instead of lying there worrying. It's the worry that gets you, not the lack of sleep.
It sounds like you actually wrote this.

It should be:

No?

I'm trying to convince this stupid kid over at Google+ that it's not right to quote without giving source.

I'm a quote freak, so I always give where credit is due. I'm pretty sure I've done the same over at iApple Cafe as resources.


http://www.webmasterworld.com/forum44/1010.htm

Replace "website" with "Google+/Facebook/Twitter" so the stupid kid can understand.

1. Can I copy the whole article and just paste it to my Google+/Facebook/Twitter?
NO. not without permission from the author.

2. Can I copy the whole article and just paste it to my Google+/Facebook/Twitter, as long as i mention where i got it from?
NO. not without permission from the author.

3. Can I only copy quotes from the article, and just paste it to my Google+/Facebook/Twitter?
Yes, you may use a small extract, but you MUST quote the source. For more information see: http://www.copyright.gov/help/faq/faq-fairuse.html

4. Can I only copy quotes from the article, and paste it to my Google+/Facebook/Twitter, when i mention where i got the article from?
it depends, see 3.

5. Is it allowed to quote the whole news and add 1 line of Your own?
NO. Not without permission from the author.

What I meant was If you could remove your 'Like'. Let's say you read the beginning of a post and (for some dumb reason) you 'Like' it but then you read the rest of the post and disagree with something. Will you be able to remove that 'Like'?
That's what "Unlike" is for...
