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] -TechBytesBot/#techbytes-news.tuxmachines.org | Tux Machines Unity Desktop Makes a Comeback With the Upcoming Ubuntu 22.10 (UPDATED)" [00:40] schestowitz__[TR] > [00:40] schestowitz__[TR] > So please, I'm asking you not to promote this individual anymore.

[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. ● Sep 02 [03:45] *u-amarsh04 has quit (Quit: Konversation terminated!)
