I don’t agree with the statement above.

That’s why I believe NFT art is somewhat decent as it verifies the authenticity of the artist.
In my marketing and advertising career, I’ve modelled great ideas but I avoid plagiarism.
However, in my years of working on social media ads, copywriting or ideas, even website design ideas, there were days where my work were copied.
While I think copying my work looked awesome to me but doing so without permission can be costly to the business that the copy was written for.
Unfortunately there are no laws to prevent copying and it is rampant in the design industry as well.
My work has been copied quite a number of times that in two instances it became a nuisance to the client’s performance.
Fortunately in one case, the client had more bandwidth to outlast the competition. They had a deep funnel and had a better strategy.
Unfortunately for the other, the one who stole the campaigns outperformed the client by 10x and that’s because they had a better strategy and resourcefulness.
What a world we live in. Dog eat dog. Survival of the fittest.
