Perfect and timely example: in their current article on the latest Kobo firmware they did a direct copy and paste out of a user post from here on Mobileread and tried to imply it was what Kobo said was new with the release (it wasn't from Kobo). No attribution to the original author, not even a paraphrased version, just cut and paste. Not the first time they have done something like this. That pretty much says it all but if you search on here you'll find lots more examples.

Note that in this case the information they posted was good information, but they have been known to take rumours or even explicit speculation (i.e. poster says they are speculating) in posts here and post it as fact or probable fact.
