  1. CW: AI, LLM, Anthropic Copyright Infringement

    Apparently #Anthropic has been ordered to pay ca. $1.5 billion for #copyright #infringement on about 500K #books they used to train #Claude along with the order to destroy any #unauthorized copies & #pirated files they possess:

    infotoday.eu/Articles/Editoria

    Considering the amount of money they stand to make from Claude's continued existence, this seems like little more than a slap on the wrist to me. Also, I find it hard to believe how it will be possible to enforce the order to destroy the illicit files.

  2. Laws Every Scout Should Know

    Being a Scout means more than camping, hiking, and earning merit badges. Scouts are also expected to be good citizens who understand the rules and laws that help keep our communities safe and fair. While Scouts are not expected to be lawyers, learning about important laws can help them become informed and responsible leaders. 1. The Scout Law and the Law of the Land The Scout Law teaches Scouts to be Trustworthy, Loyal, Helpful, Friendly, Courteous, Kind, Obedient, Cheerful, Thrifty, Brave, […]

  3. ❗Update on Plagiarism and Falsification in Scientific Publications

    Today, I officially submitted requests for the retraction of articles to the editorial boards of the journals "Land Reclamation and Water Management" and "Bulletin of NUWM".

    ❗Key facts of misconduct:
    🔹 Plagiarism: Unauthorized use of my original relief map (2015) without citation.
    🔹 Falsification: Intentional removal (retouching) of the author’s stamp with coordinates and date-time on site photographs.
    🔹 Duplication: Publication of identical material in 2021 and 2024.

    Next steps:
    In the event of attempts to covertly remove the articles without an official retraction notice, relevant complaints will be forwarded directly to @crossref and the international members of the editorial boards.

  4. ❗ While preparing a literature review for my monograph on the hydrogeochemical impact of mine waters, I discovered the unauthorized use of my original materials in articles published in 2021 and 2024. Both publications were prepared with the primary involvement of staff from the Institute of Water Problems and Land Reclamation of the National Academy of Agricultural Sciences of Ukraine (IWPLR NAASU).

    An analysis revealed facts that go beyond a simple copyright violation:
    🔹 Data Falsification: Original photo metadata (date, time, GPS) was intentionally retouched to conceal their 2015 origin and authorship.
    🔹 Methodological Anachronism: Using 2015 data for 2024 modeling renders results invalid by ignoring the major infrastructure overhaul launched in early 2025.
    🔹 Institutional Failure: This misconduct by state academy staff signals a systemic collapse of research quality control and ethical oversight within the institutions.

  5. A quotation from Franklin

    Why then should I give my Readers bad Lines of my own, when good Ones of other People’s are so plenty? ‘Tis methinks a poor Excuse for the bad Entertainment of Guests, that the Food we set before them, tho’ coarse and ordinary, is of one’s own Raising, off one’s own Plantation, &c. when there is Plenty of what is ten times better, to be had in the Market. — On the contrary, I assure ye, my Friends, that I have procur’d the best I could for ye, and much Good may’t do ye.

    Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) American statesman, scientist, philosopher, aphorist
    Poor Richard (1747 ed.)

  6. A quotation from Samuel Johnson

    But when thoughts and words are collected and adjusted, and the whole composition at last concluded, it seldom gratifies the author, when he comes coolly and deliberately to review it, with the hopes which had been excited in the fury of the performance: novelty always captivates the mind; as our thoughts rise fresh upon us, we readily believe them just and original, which, when the pleasure of production is over, we find to be mean and common, or borrowed from the works of others, and supplied by memory rather than invention.

    Samuel Johnson (1709-1784) English writer, lexicographer, critic
    Essay (1754-03-02), The Adventurer, No. 138

  7. Guitar World: Giacomo Turra used their solos note-for-note for his own viral content. Now the guitarists who had their playing “stolen” are speaking out. “Allegations that social media guitarist Giacomo Turra has been stealing songs for viral content gained traction earlier this week – and now guitar players who had their work appropriated have begun speaking out.”

  8. Anton LaVey plagiarized* "Might Is Right" for "The Satanic Bible" — here's the proof

    queersatanic.com/anton-lavey-p

    Anton LaVey, founder of the Church of Satan, directly lifted passages from the 19th century proto-fascist book "Might Is Right" by “Ragnar Redbeard” (Arthur Desmond) and did so extensively and without credit to produce a substantial part of LaVey’s most famous and popular work "The Satanic Bible".

    This has been known for a very long while, although most Satanists tend not to be aware of just how shamelessly and thoroughly this work was done.

    This article demonstrates exactly that.

  14. Other First Visions, Which are Not of This Fold

    wasmormon.org/other-first-visi

    "First Vision" of Norris Stearns, 1815 is very similar to Joseph Smith's alleged "First Vision" of 1820, which was not recorded until 1830 and not heard about by anyone until 1838... Plagiarism much?
