My View of Plagiarism
Based upon my readings, I have came to the conclusion that we cite sources in order to credit to the person who has earned it or is the known founder. I don't think it is right to take credit for someone else's' work if you did not contribute in any way and even if so, partial credit would be more appropriate rather than taking the credit as a whole. I would be very upset if someone was taking the credit for something I have done. I would want my earned recognition. I have never been in a situation of plagiarism professional, I'm not really sure how I would react. I would be very shocked. And yes I do think that the interned blurs a lot about legally owned when it comes to sites like that because half of the people don't know why they are on YouTube and etc. they just know everybody else is doing it.

I had never thought about plagiarism or citations untill I came back to school and started doing writings and such. I am gald I have learned about this and I will be able to better my self in it as time goes by.
