"Hey, AwezomeOne, deviantART announced their official policies on Art Theft. It's pretty controversial, though. I'd check it out."
That's the text I woke up to today. When I read it, I thought the website was being its usual, dumb self. Then I saw it.

For background information, some people on deviantART have taken other's drawings and posted them on other websites, selling High-Quality printable versions for a profit. But, since the drawings were on a website and not a museum, it's "technically not 'theft'."
So that's it? After I had a couple friends fall victim to something that, BY LAW, is theft? No action whatsoever?
Because of that, my story (and future stories) will be Wattpad-Exclusive from now on.
Sorry to bother you. Carry on with your day.
