    You would always need to find out if the content is allowedly published and only finding the source wouldn't be enough to ensure that.
    And even if you wouldn't count allowed publishing by other persons or translations, you would have to make sure that it isn't the same person who published it on the other site. (It isn't necessarily the same username on both sites.)


    :D a really bad crime to use a service which offers names for babies and then use that names exactly for that purpose.
