I reported this one as plagiarism. Most of the other ones seem to have some quotations around them or the source of the content. But this one is definitely plagiarism.
I noticed that some (fewer than half) of the posts have source links thrown in, and some do not. So—the issue here is
at best a mix of plagiarism, and improper attributions that give the wrong impression of the authorship of the text (a worse form of the same issue that
I tried to explain to wolwoo earlier on this thread). It does not change the outcome.
Relevant aside: Since yesterday, I have been working on a post about what plagiarism is and is not, for another one of the plagiarism case threads. I am quite familiar with this issue; and I know how to distinguish properly between plagiarism, improper authorial attribution, and also the very different but oft-confused concept of copyright infringement.
A “crypto” forum should not rely too much on trusted archives for its chain of evidence, especially when said archives are CAPTCHAing Tor users. In case of editing or deletion of posts, I have digitally signed my own attestations of quotes of wolwoo’s eight cited posts as I observed them about an hour ago, and timestamped same with Peter Todd’s
OpenTimestamps (which relies on the security of the Bitcoin blockchain). The SHA-256 hashes of my PGP-clearsigned attestation files that I can produce upon request:

I will also provide OTS proof files upon request. (On a related note, I am working on a major update to
Nullian Verification.)
