triberian, do you run this digital-era.net web site? I am assuming so based upon your submission history [0].<p>Folks, don't upvote this submission; flag it.<p>This submission appears to be largely stolen from other web pages without permission or even, at the very least, attribution.<p>Compare the last section, "GNU", for example, with the text on the FSF's "What's in a Name?" [1] page -- there are 1,281 words matching.<p>This article also has 3,663 words matching the front page of another site [2] -- and major portions are lifted right from it.<p>In addition, triberian's previous submission [3] has 585 words lifted from a 2008 blog post [4]. He even submitted it (apparently) to DistroWatch [5], passing it off as his own. (The bio on DistroWatch says he has a book coming out next month; I wonder how much of it is plagiarized?)<p>The entire digital-era.net domain should be "blacklisted" (if possible) from HN.<p>I didn't look any further.<p>[0]: <a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/submitted?id=triberian" rel="nofollow">https://news.ycombinator.com/submitted?id=triberian</a><p>[1]: <a href="http://www.gnu.org/gnu/why-gnu-linux.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.gnu.org/gnu/why-gnu-linux.html</a><p>[2]: <a href="http://linuxshark.info/" rel="nofollow">http://linuxshark.info/</a><p>[3]: <a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7545557" rel="nofollow">https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7545557</a><p>[4]: <a href="http://blog.dawouds.com/2008/11/beginners-guide-to-gnupg.html" rel="nofollow">http://blog.dawouds.com/2008/11/beginners-guide-to-gnupg.htm...</a><p>[5]: <a href="http://distrowatch.com/weekly.php?issue=current" rel="nofollow">http://distrowatch.com/weekly.php?issue=current</a>
