    Not shocked that this comes from TurnItIn. Has always been a garbage service in my experience. Only useful for flagging quotes, citations, class/insturctor names, and my own name as plagiarism.

      I saw it flagging “the […]. I am […]” it didn’t even care about the words in between, just decided to highlight the most common words in English in that one paragraph out of spite I guess.

      It also once flagged my page numbering lmao, like I’m sorry I didn’t know I had to come up with a new and exciting numeric system for every essay I submit

      Don’t forget the table of contents and page headings like “analysis” or “recommendations”.

      Garbage software.
