A recent report found that Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has built a vast surveillance network that reaches nearly everyone in the United States.[^]
On a typical morning in the United States of America, you get up, eat breakfast, and drive to work. Oh oh! You're under surveillance now, not just by the CIA or the FBI, but also by immigration enforcement.[^]

The United States is perfectly qualified to be called the monitoring empire[^]

Article: ASP.NET Core Blazor[^]

This is a dormant account that woke - Wed 25 Nov 2015

Examples of plagiarism (ie: no credit given):
* Blazor - Wikipedia[^]

Quote:
Blazor is a free and open-source web framework that enables developers to create web apps using C#

* Blazor University - What is Blazor?[^]

Quote:
Blazor is a Single Page Application development framework. The name Blazor is a combination/mutation of the words Browser and Razor (the .NET HTML view generating engine).

Also, the release date for Blazor in the Blaor vs Angular table is incorrect. The table appears to be a cut-down copy of this one: https://miro.medium.com/v2/resize:fit:1100/format:webp/0*7Tfl7YYJTnAEpohj.png[^] even has the same error and formatting! (ref: https://medium.com/c-sharp-progarmming/blazor-the-c-ui-b93ed7840b06[^])

I have a feeling that if I keep looking I will find more identical fragments that make up the disjointed article.

How should one handle an obvious ChatGPT answers in e.g. Q/A?
a.) When it is explicitly declared it is from ChatGPT? Which I think is pretty ok.
E.g. like here: How make autorun from usb in C#[^]

b.) When it is obvious, that it is a ChatGPT answer, but not declared as such
E.g. like this: [Answer Gone] https://www.codeproject.com/Answers/5358649/How-do-I-give-a-background-color-of-a-text-in-a-pa#answer1 [Gone]
Thank you in advance.

I hit it as "Not an answer" and report the member as "troll / abuse" - it's plagiarism after all.

You did not like how I gave full credit for each answer? I was showing ways not to be lazy and to do his research... 🤔

No, yours was fine, he was using it as a "good" example.
This one though How do I give a background color of a text in an HTML page using javascript?[^] ... that was plagiarism.

In normal ChatGPT responses, the poster takes full credit - ie: blatant plagiarism. I am very proactive in reporting these members, probably the most critical here.

This is not a case of plagiarism when full credit is given. This is, even more, clearer than a post to a link to a StackOverFlow or some other 3rd party blog or website link.

As mentioned to Griff, I was teaching him how to do research and not to be lazy.
