Remember that guy who lost his job for copying 2 lines from another dissertation.
Oh wait, you don't because you aren't german, still. Copying a guide probably isn't a reason to get arrested, but it will earn a billion downvotes.
No it can't. At best the original owner could file for damages in civil court. No criminal court would waste their time on this.
Most cases of plagiarism are considered misdemeanors, punishable by fines of anywhere between $100 and $50,000 — and up to one year in jail. Plagiarism can also be considered a felony under certain state and federal laws. For example, if a plagiarist copies and earns more than $2,500 from copyrighted material, he or she may face up to $250,000 in fines and up to ten years in jail.
This is taken right out of my little brothers law book.
Yes, you can go to jail.
Yes, people do go to jail.
