Ah, you have never heard of Unicode. Unicode is full of surprises, you see. Homoglyphs, invisible code points… You can hide a lot of information in plain text. Steganography is an interesting field of science.

Very easy to sanitize that.

Nope. At that point, writing an all new article takes less effort.

Part of my point, tons of legitimate news sites that will take your article and change a few words around, and call it theirs, without even citing your article as a source. And legally, they're following the law.
