Steal Like an Artist

The concept is provocative but also controversial—I'm curious what led to this framing and how it resonates with actual artistic practice.

Most examples seem rooted in traditional creative fields, but I wonder if the principles hold up in areas like digital design, meme culture, or remixing online content.
