Embarrassing Copy-Paste Plagues Harris’s Launch of Policy Platform | The New Republic   "Shortly after Kamala Harris released her policy agenda on Sunday evening, users on X spotted something in the metadata: Much of the language appears to have been lifted from Joe Biden’s campaign website."

"On Sunday night, X user Corinne Green pointed out that the issues section of Harris’s website contained metadata with language urging voters to reelect Joe Biden. This language was visible when links to the campaign site were shared, and in the website’s description on Google searches." . . .

‘Change Agent’ Kamala Harris Apparently Copy-Pasted Her Platform Page From Joe Biden ( Daily Caller )   "Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign website apparently used code from President Joe Biden’s policy page to create its long-awaited “issues tab,” a social media user pointed out Sunday.

"More than a month into her run for the White House, Harris’ campaign unveiled a policy platform on its website. One twitter user, Corinne Green, noticed that the page appeared to use metadata that caused language encouraging Americans to vote for Biden to pop up when they tried to share or look up the issues page.

"The rest of the Harris campaign website appears to have its own metadata, except for the issues tab, Green posted on Twitter. Green later wrote that once she had pointed out the problem on social media, the Harris campaign issues tab appeared to no longer use metadata from Biden’s policy page." . . .
