What are your thoughts on the colleagues who stalk your LinkedIn and then copy almost complete "about section" of your profile and paste it in their profile?

I feel pretty bad, when you research alot and come up with unique sentences and then there Te people who copy as it's, at least change the sentence structure, ye kya baat Hui poora ka poora sentence hi copy kar lete ho and that too without any acknowledgement.

Research about what? And unique sentences? Are you writing novel and book?

Research about relevant keywords specific to your profile, work you do.

Similar to writing novel if you're working in unique niche.

You have kept for public view so there is nothing wrong in copying unless it’s copyrighted content which LinkedIn is not.

Of course I'm not referring it with copyright point of view.

But it's similar to writing exam copying from your co-seat person.

Don't think you are novelist by writing about section. All these words are available and not created by you. Otherwise every one would have taken copyright

Exactly, then why don't write something different by tweaking the words?

And since you also agree that it's not about writing novel, it's that easy, then why don't write with your creativity rather than exact copying from someone else?

And I'm not referring to the words but sentence structure that's specifically created by me for my usecase.

Did you confront your colleagues about this? Well, I agree with the other comments saying that your work is not even copyrighted or private since it's on LinkedIn. The words you used were also available on the internet.

What words exactly. Words are meant to be used by everyone else. Besides, if you posted it in public you expect that these things are gonna happen. Try to change whatever it is in your profile.

Kind of having a breakthrough realizing that self-acceptance is the key to personal growth.

Do you find that you have little patience for texting on the dating apps? I find myself trading texts for a couple of days and then ready to either talk, meet or move on.

Another thing is I was an immediate joiner as I had left my previous organisation 3 months ago so I couldn't wait to think about this offer.

But now I think it's low, what do you think please let me know and suggest.
