I thought OP was referring to people taking cues from other people's general ideas/concepts in fanart, with no open acknowledgment of where they got the idea, not straight-up stealing. I can't think of a specific example but certain ideas can practically become memes in art with no one really knowing who came up with it first, which is unfortunate and doesn't preserve the "courtesy over hard rules" attitude that applies to a lot of positive fandom activity but is kinda what you expect from such a viral atmosphere. And that's an issue of creative pride, which I'm just saying feels so separate from the issue of complaining about the consequences of breaking a sometimes tenuously justified law that even if I see both sides of the argument I'm just not sure HYPOCRISY is really the point.
