Been noticing a trend lately — more and more accounts across social platforms are using our research and charts, but they're rarely giving proper credit where it's due. It's one thing when work gets shared, but quite another when watermarks get stripped out or swapped with someone else's branding. That crosses a pretty clear line.



The thing is, this isn't even limited to X. It's happening everywhere. You put effort into creating quality analysis, and suddenly it's floating around the internet with your name nowhere in sight. Some accounts build entire followings off content that wasn't originally theirs.

It's frustrating because attribution matters — not just for ego, but for the integrity of information sources. Readers should know where analysis actually comes from.

ngl, the watermark stripping thing is honestly peak laziness... like, technically speaking, if you're removing attribution markers you're literally corrupting the integrity of the source material. that's not just theft, it's tampering with the proof of origin.

Sigh, this issue is really annoying. The phenomenon of copying and removing watermarks is too rampant.

This is just outrageous; none of the copy-pasters have any sense of sportsmanship.

This is outrageous; reposting without citing the source really damages the ecosystem.

These days, everyone wants to ride the hype, and there are more copycats than creators.

I was just wondering why I've been seeing so many accounts recently replacing my charts with a watermark... These people.

I just said, why is this thing so disgusting... The feeling of having content exposed is truly unbearable.
