To be honest Some of us not really care about what the contents of whitepapper, or sometimes we are to lazy to read that things. It is just become usual things on ICO project, the whitepapper content & the technology are just the same with the other projects. So many scamer arround us, just be careful & make deep research with the project that we wanna make investment on it.

I have a few thoughts.

1. It's not good to copy

2. the reality is, nobody cares...

The only thing that it reflects the way why ICO managers copy the whitepapers of others is that, they are not legit and original. Meaning to say that, they intend to create misleading content and in short, they aim to Scam in someways. White paper is very important for every ICO since it is the reflection of ICOS project and aim.

I'm not surprised at all that white paper copying takes place. People want easy money and as long as there are stupid newcomers who are sure that after entering the exchange any shit coin will grow in price, until then there will be a Scam. Use your head,before make any investments decisions.

This is the truth, there are too many investors in the market that do not see the difference between bitcoin and other coins and they think that if bitcoin grew that much then a small coin can eventually become as big and we know that is not the case but people think that and eventually they pay the mistake of thinking that bitcoin is just like any other coin.

There are certain rules for drafting technical documentation. Therefore, it's difficult to require a variety of White Paper. More often, it's written in a pattern. And as a rule, it is rarely that enybody reads WP. It happens that the White Paper is perfect, but the project turns out to be scamm.

Honestly if someone copied a whitepaer I don't think that a  lot of people would notice since no one really reads the whitepaper anyway. If you want to know how little people care about the whitepaper just read for some of the projects, you will find so many typos and grammatical errors but no one would be pointing it out because no one reads them
I know this is the case, in the past when I was more interested in investing in icos I always read the whitepapers and I was surprised by the amount of errors that I found, then I took the time to report the errors and yet the developers did not care enough about them to update the whitepaper, so not only the investors do not care even the developers did not care about it.

Scams are getting cheaper, that's all.
Scammers used to getting a lot of money fall for their scam in past so they could afford better construction of Whitepaper. With the rise of number of people and projects scamming and a general awareness in investors about a good and bad project, scams are getting really cheaper.

Some ICOs do not write their WPs own, they pay for it to be done by third party.
For me it is a red flag if find out their WP is plagiarism.

A project that simply copies a whitepaper can only be a scam.
If i discovered something like this, my trust in a project would be gone.
Who can not write his own whitepaper, certainly can not lead a successful project.

This is mainly because the market is too hot. What kind of projects can raise funds. So there are a lot of scammers. When the market is in a downturn, there are very few such situations, and the fundraising is not enough. There is no plagiarism.

As any type of plagiarism should be harshly punished, in college if you copy someone else's work you were suspended for the semester and if it was something really serious you were expelled, remember that plagiarism is a little less than theft, but it is still the theft of someone else's intellectual property.
I agree with the spirit of this, but if we take into account that there have been incredible scams that have made people lose tens of millions of dollars and yet those people have not set a foot on jail then it is very unlikely that some heavy repercussion is going to fall to those people that use plagiarism to try to make their project more legitimate to the eyes of other people.

This is the indicator that a project is not worth to be invested in.

Since not all people willing to read a whitepaper. It makes that kind of plagiarism get missed and some people ended up getting scammed by a copy pasted project, and makes those people regret what they had investing.

Plagiarism is a criminal act, no different from stealing from others. We must prevent it.
Many scam ICO's are plagiarizing the other's legit ICO and made many investors scammed by them.
Any kind of plagiarism should be punish because it can give other peoples problems.

well, actually there is not too much we can do about the plagiarism on the white paper. but for me, if a project and a team is not good enough to do their own white paper right, they are not going to have my money since i would say they are likely more a scam

Some simply plan to deceive the investor in this way. They simply can not come up with something new or alternative and take the created, tested. I think these projects should be closed immediately after the appearance.
