I'm not sure this is the proper place for this, but I work for a WFH content mill and write consumer articles for them. On their site, they have their own text box that you can put your writing into before sending it off to them to be approved. Just yesterday, they posted an announcement to all writers saying that from now on, we are not allowed to copy/paste the pieces we write into the text box, we MUST write everything directly on-site using the box. This won't affect me at all, as I already use the on-site box to write, but I'm wondering what difference this would make and how they'd be able to tell the difference? Can they see us writing in that text box in real-time or something? I don't understand. How would they know if someone wrote their piece on a Word document, pasted it to the box, and fixed the formatting before sending it in? Could it have something to do with the influx of people trying to send in AI-generated pieces? I want to gain insight into their possible motivations for this because I've had problems with them in the past. Just recently they tried to accuse me of illegally selling the same exact pieces I write for them to other websites (with zero proof, of course) all because I get really into my writing and would add extra words to the minimum required word count, which I had been consistently doing for years.
