Okay, please someone explain this video to me. Is samir blind? Is this like, a test, to see if a blind man can drive with a navigator? Why is there a navigator telling him about medium lefts? Should a driver not be able to see a medium left coming up? What is happening here?

Have you ever worked in academia? This kind of email could definitely be real, not saying this one necessarily is though

I have never worked in academia, but I’ve spent time around academics and have read plenty of emails in both academic and corporate contexts … this particular one looks fake, even if the circumstances of plagiarism are common - this just not seem like how a thesis adviser would address this kind of plagiarism with a grad student

who signs an email with “first supervisor”?
dandelion@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 hours ago
it could be an internal organizational title, but it definitely doesn’t sound like an academic position and not a part of a normal email signature either

Would it actually be an arrestsble offence though?

Depends on the country, I think some actually do criminally punish fraud on the public research dime.
I know there are countries where the government can revoke your PhD if you fuck up enough.
