I found this module interesting. Merlot was amazing. I found courses and, most importantly, assessment materials on different subjects. I loved the neuroscience and the history sections. Between these OERs are such great finds that enhance acessibility and enrich education. The part about social media and intellectual attributions was relevant. I recalled a funny social media (Instagram and YouTube) fight between two creators over a song.
One perspective is that, even after removing the plagiarized song, Peyton Parrish is still successful. He built his social media fame with unattributed songs and only took them down after he had millions of followers who did not care about the more minor creator Peyton plagiarized. The attribution would have been meaningless as he did change the song.
It seems that social media is a place designed to provide content only measured by the demand of the audience.
