Yes it's crystal clear that the article made by coindesk was copy pasted from startupmanagement.org but have you read the whole article made by coindesk? The last part says this
This article was previously published on Startup Management (http://startupmanagement.org/2017/03/13/the-ultimate-list-of-ico-resources-18-websites-that-track-initial-cryptocurrency-offerings/)  and has been republished here with permission.
So they asked permission of William Mougayar/Startup Management to republish his article to coindesk.

But when it is just copy pasted , no matter from whom they take permission , it gets uglier . They should have edited it at least . They just copy pasted it . For instance, when a movie is copied , they have some editing .

Lol, it is not on your bussiness, it is very annoying, but yes, nobody read those ugly articles because they are not apporting anything to the community, i mean, everything that we want to read, is on this forum, so we dont need those kind of information because we have all that in here, just in one click.
But yes, those guys who do copypaste should be punished from Google, or at least not to be payed by adsense or whatever they are using to get paid for the ads, it is very annoying to realize that they are doing copypaste from other people.

Google is fast in punishing double content. So the "second" article will not be ranked, besides the site has worthful content on other pages or worthful media elements.

I don't see any sort of problem with this.

In the author column they actually state clearly that this was written by the guy who original wrote it. They also once more acknowledge that they got permission from the author to republish this and i'm sure they probably came to an agreement financially about the rewards of this post.

No harm done here, both parties are in agreement.

In some countries (or almost all?) you can get even trouble, if you quote correctly with source (think on google news snippets in Europe/Germany). If both sites agree, it is ok, if not, it can get very expensive. Independent fron this, it doesn't help for search ranking.

Bitcointalk is on second place  :D

But when it is just copy pasted , no matter from whom they take permission , it gets uglier . They should have edited it at least . They just copy pasted it . For instance, when a movie is copied , they have some editing .
Have you read article?
It is list of ICO resources.
With or without editing it list should be the same and it would not make any sense to edit list. They have permission, end of story.
Look at these articles . Don't they look copy paste ? Damn !
I don't know why is so important to create new topic to ask is republished article with permission of author copy and paste. Answer is obvious  ::)
