Imagine a software which reveals what has been copy-pasted and from where. This software exists, and it is called Pippi Longstrings.

And it’s been Beta-tested on a very sexy subject. While the future of ACTA looks dim after the European Parliament rejected it, a new agreement called CETA (Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement) is due to replace it.
