It's OK to copy it, provided we cite original, because we have no control of other sites and the answer may be removed. If its here on AskUbuntu I post a comment with a link to the answer and flag the question for closure. This probably means I'm losing out on easy reputation points but that's not the point of the site.
Apr 17, 2013 at 17:18 comment added Luis Alvarado Mod OMG LOL. What was that. Am suing you for [Type dumb excuse here]. ok but seriously, was talking about dupe answer inside Askubuntu. That example you gave might apply but am more into the ones that show inside AU. As you say, it is a very sticky judgement call. BTW upvoted your awesome answer ^^.
