There was some discussion of this subject, some time back.
Now McGill has made a decision in the case of Jesse Rosenfeld, who
claimed the right not to submit his work to Turnitin.com. He argued
that it was not right that a commercial company should make money out of
his work when he, the student, would receive no recompense for that work.
Headline: "McGill backs down after an undergraduate refuses to submit
his work to a Web firm that checks for originality and then keeps essays
in its database."
