If you were to search for a specific Roblox game and look at the results, you’d find several games that are near copies of one another. Is it a coincidence? Did the player steal the content? It’s likely that the game is an uncopylocked game (rather than content theft).
An uncopylocked game is simply this: a game that anyone can take and copy. Players who copy uncopylocked games can do whatever they want with that template. Some software out there operates in the same way called “open-source,” and uncopylocked games are exactly that.
