Hello everyone,

I am a new Steemit user so I apologize if this question has been answered already. Is posting other peoples' content allowed on Steemit?

If I post a video from PewDiePie on here and get upvoted, I am basically earning money off of someone else's content. Couldn't this be an issue?

I think the idea of earning money for posting content is a great idea. It allows anybody to create an income stream and they don't need to be famous or anything. I think it is great that people can do that but I am not sure how you can enforce a law where people can only post content they created.

Would love to have an answer as to the current status. If it is OK to do, are there are rules in the future that will change this? I'm not sure how this can be enforced either.
