If you already knew the definition of plagiarism, your earlier post
intentionally muddled the issue by drawing in copyright issues, which
nobody had raised in this thread. Your whole mention of copyright
seems like a strawman, and oddly enough, you don't mention it at all
in this rebuttal.
Perhaps you should shamelessly eat those words.
