I co-founded Paperslip.org in 2020. Until January 1st, 2021, Paperslip was a private, password protected site which was only shared with KSS Adoptees. Prior to Paperslip, I created a different website for KSS Adoptees, whose contents I later transferred to Paperslip.
I guess when you have done really valuable work, it can be highly attractive to others. I was too naive to expect this, since I believe in freely sharing information with others. However, on January 1st, 2023, DKRG’s (Danish Korean Rights Group’s) Peter Møller (who is NOT a lawyer, as he has claimed for years to be in international press) attempted to plagiarize my original KSS K-Number research by falsely assigning credit for this work to a (then) supporter who is not even himself a Korean Adoptee. I have written about this experience here:

More recently, another *KRG related group plagiarized Paperslip’s FOIA page in early 2026. Seattle based Kari Gaynor (“Kari Jee” online) is the webmaster of this *KRG group which is responsible for this instance of plagiarism. While we don’t consider the FOIA process to be a proprietary process, there are specific aspects about the process which we have gleaned through our own direct experience over the years and shared through our FOIA page, which were obviously copied by this other group without attribution to us. We have been sharing information about FOIA since 2018 — even before Paperslip was created in 2020. By contrast, the group which plagiarized our page only began recommending the FOIA process in early 2026 — which ironically is about a year after FOIA unfortunately ceased to be an effective method for gathering information for US Adoptees. Sometimes, the universe has a way of telling plagiarists that they are a day late and a dollar short.

We have taken steps to legally protect Paperslip.org from future plagiarism. Plagiarizing our FOIA page is one thing, but plagiarism of our original research from other areas of Paperslip will be legally pursued to the furthest extent possible.
We wish that we did not have to post a message such as this. We also wish that others would behave according to a higher standard of morals and ethics. In the absence of that, there is the law.
